The son of a Turkish soccer player known to have died from Corona19 turns out to have been killed by his father.

Foreign media, such as Turkish media daily Sabah, reported on Thursday that local football player Sever Tottas was arrested by the police after confessing to his murder. 

On the 23rd of last month, Tokath's son, Kasim, was taken to the hospital for symptoms of high fever and shortness of breath.

But after a while, Toxxas called the medical staff, saying that his son was not breathing. However, his son did not recover even in first aid, and eventually died within two hours of arriving at the hospital. 

Difficulty in breathing was one of the causes of deaths in patients suffering from corona19, so the hospital treated Toxtas' son as being killed in corona19. 

After Toxas' funeral with his family, he posted a picture of his son's grave on his SNS with the words "Don't count on the world".
But 11 days after his son's death, Toxxas came to the police and confessed, "I smothered my son with a pillow and killed him." In addition, he explained in detail the process of the crime, saying, "My son pressed with a pillow for 15 minutes and immediately called a medical staff to avoid doubt."

Regarding the reason for the crime, it was said that he said, "I have never loved my son since I was born."

Turkish police say they are planning to take Kasim's body out of the grave and autopsy it to reveal a clear sign.
