Dündar Kılıç

Dündar Kılıç (real name Dündar Alikılıç) (1935 – 10 August 1999) was an infamous mob boss in the Turkish underworld. He earned himself the nickname of being the 'godfather of godfathers'.[1]

Dündar Kılıç was born in 1935 in a village of the Surmene District of Trabzon in the eastern Black Sea Region, Turkey. He moved to Ankara with his family when he was nine years old, and got his first gun a year later. His first arrested was at the age of 14, by the 1960s he was readily known as one of the Ankara's leading criminals. His primary income came from extortion and illegal gambling, and became known as the 'good godfather', allegedly because he would only have his people collect money from those already involved in illegal dealings. Eventually the authorities caught up with him and he was arrested and jailed for a murder he committed in 1960.
