According to the report of the Austrian Kap, 43-year-old Kahraman met a businessman friend in a cafe in Vienna on Wednesday. The two men quarreled over something, so when they went out into the street they started to settle their dispute with their fists, and then – according to witnesses’ reports – two shots could be heard. The first ended with Kahraman, and with the second, his friend shot himself in the head and committed suicide. The police launched an investigation into the matter.

In addition to his native country, Kahraman also visited the Netherlands, Turkey and Greece as a player, and in 2002 he played in three matches for the Austrian national team. He also sat on the bench of Simmering, Karabakh Wien and Ostbahn XI as a coach.
