Abstract
The following essay gives detailed information about Esref Kuschubasi, one of the members of Teskilati-Mahsusa, who has gained much of a reputation for being recognized as a hero or traitor throughout his life. Although Esref Kuschubasi displayed himself as a brave soldier especially in his military career and the following wars such as Balkan Wars, his attitude towards the newly formed Turkish Republic under Mustafa Kemal Ataturk changed and made him become against the Turkish Republic and its rule over the region. Esref Kuschubasi was the one who attempted to change the regime of the Turkish Republic by committing more and more crimes as well as joining some rebellious groups such as “Cerkez Ethem’’. Consequently, due to the archive of the Turkish Republic, Esref Kuschibasi was considered primarily guilty of his dangerous actions against the Turkish Republic.

Eşref Kuscubasi, özellikle askeri kariyerinde ve Balkan Savaşları gibi sonraki savaşlarda kendisini cesur bir asker olarak gösterse de Mustafa Kemal Atatürk'ün önderliğinde yeni kurulan Türkiye Cumhuriyeti'ne karşı tavrı değişmiş ve Türkiye Cumhuriyeti'ne ve bölge üzerindeki kurallarına aykırı hale gelmiştir. oGiderek daha fazla suç işleyerek ve “Çerkez Ethem” gibi bazı isyancı gruplara katılarak Türkiye Cumhuriyeti rejimini değiştirmeye çalışan kişi Eşref Kuscubasi idi. Sonuç olarak, Türkiye Cumhuriyeti arşivlerine göre, Eşref Kuscubasi öncelikle Türkiye Cumhuriyeti'ne karşı yaptığı tehlikeli eylemlerden suçlu kabul edildi.
