Everything about U Ur Mumcu totally explainedUğur Mumcu ( August 22, 1942 - January 24, 1993) was a Turkish Kemalist intellectual, investigative journalist and columnist for the major newspaper Cumhuriyet . He was killed one morning outside his home by a bomb placed in his car on January 24 1993.
Uğur Mumcu was born as the third of four siblings in Kırşehir, where his father was working. He went to school in Ankara and in 1961 attended School of Law at Ankara University. After graduation in 1965, he worked for a while as a lawyer. He then visited England to learn English and upon his return to Turkey worked as a teaching assistant at Ankara University from 1969 to 1972.
He started to write in his university years, first in the magazine Yön and then in several other leftist periodicals. Between 1968 and 1970, he wrote articles on politics for the newspapers Akşam, Cumhuriyet and Milliyet. In 1974, Uğur Mumcu started a career as a columnist, with the periodical Yeni Ortam and from 1975 on, in the broadsheet newspaper Cumhuriyet, which he continued until his death (apart from a few months in 1991 when he was in dispute with the management).
On the morning of January 24, 1993, he left his home and was killed by a C-4 plastic bomb as he started his car. Among groups that have claimed responsibility are the Islamic Liberation Organization, Hizbullah, the Raiders of Islamic Great East, and Islamic Jihad.
As well as his journalism Uğur Mumcu also published books on current and historical political issues of Turkey. At the time of his assassination, he was working on research into the Kurdish problem and the PKK.
