STRIKING "SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP" DETAIL IN THE PROSECUTOR'S LETTER
The prosecutor's letter regarding the arrest contained striking expressions. The letter stated that the suspects engaged in sexual relations in groups, using the following expressions: "The suspects provided a place and means for the use of narcotic substances in their residences, supplied narcotic substances to women who came to their home, and after using narcotic substances, engaged in sexual relations with more than two people. Additionally, the suspect benefited himself and his surroundings in a sectoral and material sense by involving women in sexual relations in this manner."
ERSOY'S STATEMENT REVEALED
The statement of Mehmet Akif Ersoy, the General Manager of Habertürk TV who was arrested in the drug investigation conducted by the Chief Public Prosecutor's Office, has emerged. According to Serbestiyet, Ersoy denied the allegations against him. Stating that he has never used drugs in his life, Ersoy expressed that the claims of "group sexual relations" are completely false.
Ersoy's statement to the prosecutor is as follows: "I absolutely deny the statements and allegations against me. I have never used narcotic substances in my life. These allegations are very ugly. There was a period when I dated E.A., but we could not continue and ended it. The allegations regarding the dialogue between my friends and E.A. are very ugly. Such a thing did not happen.
"I TOLD THEM TO COOPERATE WITH THE STATE"
I moved out of the residence named Seba in 2022. M.A. never came to the house in Ulus. I do not know E.A.'s sister E.A., but I know her because of E.A. There is no way I would protect her. In fact, I sent E. and her mother to the police. I told them to cooperate with the state, and they did.
B.K. is the owner of a company named İ... I met him in 2017-2018. He is a normal friend of mine. M.D. works at TRT World. I know him because of the sector. I have no relationship with him. After I became a manager, I did not even let Ufuk Tetik and my other friends appear on television. In fact, my friends complained to me about this. These allegations are also false.
"I DID NOT PUT HIM ON THE PRESIDENT'S PLANE"
I met S.D. in 2011 due to the sector. He became my adversary in 2024 because I fired his wife B.D. I have never had any business dealings with S.D. and Ufuk. There was never any money talk between us. I did not put K.U. on the President's plane. In fact, the Communication Ministry selects the journalists who will board the President's plane. I have no knowledge of K. and E. meeting. I do not even consider it a possibility.
"I WAS NOT UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF DRUGS IN THE ACCIDENT I HAD ON THE BRIDGE"
The claim that S.T. was driving around in a car with a siren is false. All the allegations of group sex are false. I was not under the influence of drugs in the accident I had on the bridge. There is a police report regarding this. It is true that we went on vacation to Barcelona because A.G.'s friend was there. We happened to run into Rezan Epözdemir there. My friend was also the consul general.
"WE HAD FILED A CRIMINAL COMPLAINT ABOUT THESE TWEETS"
I have a partnership of about 5%-10% with Mustafa Manaz, although it is not official. G.A. introduced me to A.G. I have been to his house once. E.D. is a friend of mine who is an actor. The allegations that I ordered narcotic substances from my friends' phones are false. In February, a Twitter account was opened similar to the allegations you mentioned. Some of these allegations were written on the tweet account. We had filed a criminal complaint about these tweets. At that time, we could not determine who was using it. These are all I have to say.
