MHP (Nationalist Movement Party) Chairman Devlet Bahçeli expressed his support for Selahattin Yılmaz, who was arrested as part of an operation targeting an armed criminal organization in five provinces centered around Istanbul. Bahçeli stated, "Selahattin Yılmaz is my comrade and a fellow fighter. I believe that it will be understood and revealed over time that he is innocent and blameless. Claiming that adjustments are being made to the MHP through his name is a baseless fabrication."

An operation was carried out against 14 suspects, including 2 lawyers, as part of the investigation into the armed criminal organization allegedly led by Selahattin Yılmaz, conducted by the Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's Office.
In the operation carried out in a total of 5 provinces, including Ankara, Antalya, Muğla, and Samsun, centered in Istanbul, 10 people, including the suspect Yılmaz, were arrested.
STRIKING WORDS FROM BAHÇELİ
Following the arrest of Selahattin Yılmaz, who is claimed to be the leader of the criminal organization, a striking statement came from MHP Chairman Devlet Bahçeli.
"IT WILL BE REVEALED THAT HE IS INNOCENT AND NOT GUILTY"
Bahçeli, who stated that Yılmaz is his comrade and fellow party member, said, "I believe that it will be understood and revealed in the process that he is innocent and not guilty."
"NO NATIONALIST CAN BE DEFINED AS A HIRED KILLER"
Bahçeli's complete statement regarding the issue is as follows; "In Özgür Özel's speech in Aydın, presenting Selahattin Yılmaz's name as a 'hired killer and assassin' is a result of a shameful and degraded language that attempts to speculate on our party. Selahattin Yılmaz is my comrade and fellow party member. No nationalist can be defined as a hired killer, assassin, traitor, or illegitimate, nor can they be labeled as such.
Claiming that adjustments are being made to the MHP based on the name Selahattin Yılmaz is a very serious slander, an unfounded and baseless fabrication. Moreover, making adjustments and directing the MHP is something that no one can do. In summary and repeatedly, Selahattin Yılmaz is my comrade and fellow party member. I believe that it will be understood and revealed in the process that he is innocent and not guilty."
