RELEASED
It was also reported that Timur, who was questioned by the FBI and asked questions related to Eric Adams, was released after the interrogation.
TIMUR DENIED THE ALLEGATIONS
Speaking to Sözcü, Erden Timur denied the allegations against him. Stating that the claims are unfounded, Timur said, "I was watching the Fenerbahçe match. News about my detention dropped on social media. There is no truth to it. We came to New York for the NEF Philharmonic Orchestra. Since we are doing business in the USA, the officials asked if we made a donation to New York Mayor Eric Adams. There was never a situation like detention."
