They studied all available videos of the shooting frame by frame, as well as testimonies. They concluded that the fleeding PKK did not shot at Elçi, the likely fatal shot probably came from 2 identified police officers shooting on the two fleeding PKK and not from the escaping PKK militants. They also point out no medical check was caried on Elçi for 10 minutes after being shoot, and none of the policemen involved were ever questioned or debriefed by Turkish authorities, despite the need to do so.
