German leftists were outraged when police shot a Turkish migrant who threatened them with a knife in Mannheim on Christmas Eve.
Leftist netizens said the police should have injured him and not killed him.
Turkish migrant Ertekin Ozkan was shot and later died at a hospital after he walked towards police with a knife.
The Turkish Consul General in Karlsruhe, Mahmut Niyazi Sezgin, paid a visit to Ozkan’s family after his death.
