He was not an ordinary "tourist", he was the prime mover of creating a domestic social platform in Turkiye. According to the news he was murdered by "thieves" but it is quite suspicious when we consider how effective it would be to create a Turkish social media platform and power loss of Facebook and Twitter in Turkiye.

There might be a couple of reasons for that:

- News (in general) tends to be very... localized/geocentric. (I.e. people tend to care more about local events than international.) Journalists covering the story may have been more keen to concentrate on the 'Tourist' angle because it would be of more interest to those in the U.S.

- Its also possible that some stories were written before anyone had a chance to identify the details of the victim's life. (After all, you want to get the story out quickly, and it would take time to build up a detailed profile about who he actually was, and who he worked for.)
