Abstract

Τουρκοκύπριος ασθενής που πάσχει από νευρικό κλονισμό πήρε ένα ξυράφι και προσπάθησε να σκοτώσει τον γιατρό του. Ωστόσο, το ξυράφι χρησιμοποιήθηκε από την ανάποδη πλευρά κι αποφεύχθηκε το μοιραίο. Λίγη ώρα αργότερα ο ασθενής δεν θυμόταν το γεγονός.
A Turkish-Cypriot patient who had a nervous breakdown took a razor and tried to kill his doctor. The razor, however, was used not with its sharp side and thus, the doctor did not die. A few minutes later the patient could not remember anything.
