Lawyers And Relatives Speak On Murders Of Burak Bektas And Luke Holland

BERLIN, GERMANY - JANUARY 11: Melek Bektas (R), holds a photograph of Burak Bektas beside her husband Guelahmet Bektas while posing for a photograph after they participated in a press conference led by lawyer Mehmet Daimagueler over the murders of Burak Bektas and Luke Holland on January 11, 2016 in Berlin, Germany. Daimegueler, as well as the families of the two murdered men, are demanding the two murder cases be re-opened and that investigators pursue the possibility of a right-wing motive behind the killings. Buktas was murdered in 2012, Holland in 2015, both possibly by Ralf Z., 62, whom police questioned and whose apartment they searched but who was never convicted. Testimony from witnesses indicate Ralf Z. had xenophobic views and police searches turned up right-wing articles in his apartment. Daimegueler, who is an accessory prosecutor in the current NSU neo-Nazi murder trial in Munich, stated that police have learned nothing in light of the grievous errors in the NSU case. Police investigating the NSU murders failed to make a right-wing connection in the case that spread over a 10-year-period until the two assailants were cornered following a bank robbery in 2013 and their neo-Nazi affiliation revealed.
