Vatan Şaşmaz, a renowned TV host and anchor, was shot dead in a hotel room in Istanbul late on August 27.
As Hurriyet reports, former model Filiz Aker fired four shots at Şaşmaz in his back before committing suicide with a single bullet in her head at the luxurious Conrad Hotel.
Aker had reportedly been having dinner at the hotel with her niece Dora Ercan at around 5 p.m. and later went to her room after receiving a text message.
After Ercan inquired about Aker’s whereabouts to hotel staff, they opened the door to the room and found 43-year-old Şaşmaz and 55-year-old Aker lying on the ground.
According to a police report, Şaşmaz and Aker had a relationship in 2009 but then broke up.
