A man who appeared on a Turkish television dating show in search of a new partner shocked the audience by revealing he had murdered his former wife and a former lover.
Sefer Calinak, 62, told Flash TV's Luck of the Draw he had served prison sentences for each of the murders and had been released under an amnesty programme.
"I'm an honest person looking for a new wife," he told the show, saying he killed his first wife - who also happened to be his cousin - because he was "irritated" by her behavior and murdered a subsequent partner because he thought she was after his money.
“I killed her after she tried to kill me,” he said.
“She was accidentally killed when I swung the axe.”
Calinak was asked to leave the show by the host, prompting applause from the studio audience, in an episode which made headlines in Turkish newspapers.
However, he said that he was simply the victim of "destiny".
“Bad luck always found me,” he said.
“Despite everything, I still want to get married. This time I’ll leave it to God.”
