Ozdemir wrote book "Uc jonturkun olumu" (Death of three jonturks) on
the leaders of "Young Turks" during the Ottoman Empire - Talat pasha,
Anvar pasha and Jamil pasha.
The book gives information about the murder of Talat pasha in Germany,
Anvar pasha in Tajikistan, Jamal pasha in Tbilisi. One interesting
momentum on the murder of Anvar pasha was shown in the book.
The author says that Armenian named Muradyan sent threat letter to
Heydar Aliyev in 1987. The letter says that Anvar pasha was murdered
by Armenian named Saruhanyan who was from Nagorno Karabakh on August
5, 1922. Saruhanyan was the member of the commander group of Akop
Melkumyan. Melkumyan described this event in journal "Horizon".
"The enemy could not see us in the fog. I was glad when I realized
that Anvar Pasha was there together with his guards. The guns started
to fire after my order. Anvar pasha was sleeping when our swords
were sparkling in front of the windows. Then he mounted a horse
and escaped. We killed Anvar pasha in Ganli sungu (bayonet fight),"
he said.
Anvar pasha died in the battle with Soviet troops at the bottom of the
mountain Pamir in his 42 year. He was buried in nearby village. His
tomb was taken to Turkey in 1996.
