Hundreds of relatives, friends and companions said goodbye to former ÖFB team player Volkan Kahraman on Friday evening. As reported in detail, the 43-year-old was shot in the head on the street last Wednesday, and the perpetrator – an old friend of the victim – committed suicide.
The motive for the murder: jealousy! After there were already tumultuous scenes surrounding the bloody deed, the police were increasingly on duty on Friday.
Funeral service near the crime scene
The funeral service was held at the HAN Palace, a venue incidentally known for large-scale weddings – it is just a stone’s throw from the Vienna-Simmering crime scene.
Kahraman started his career at Austria Wien but switched to the Dutch professional league at a young age. He slipped three times on the jersey of the Austrian national team.
