"IF MY BROTHER HAS DONE SOMETHING WRONG, THE NECESSARY ACTION MUST BE TAKEN"

Deputy Interior Minister Mehmet Aktaş, in a statement regarding the day his brother was detained, said: "I learned in the morning that he was detained as part of the operation. He was probably detained in connection with a job there. Since the investigation is currently confidential, we have no information either. Ultimately, if my brother has done something wrong, the necessary action must be taken. This is the essence of the matter; this child is a municipal employee. He is probably detained regarding a signature he made there, the content of which we do not know."
