33 Bullets Incident
In 1943 he ordered the execution of 33 alleged Kurdish smugglers, an event known as the 33 Bullets Incident. One of the villagers survived. In 1949 Muğlalı was charged for the murders and sentenced to death. But later a court decided to lower the verdict to 20 years of imprisonment. He died in a military hospital in Ankara awaiting for a final sentence of the Supreme Court.[2]
