Fadıl Akgündüz, known publicly as 'Jet Fadıl', who was sentenced to 2,504 years in prison for 'fraud' in the real estate projects named Caprice Gold in Istanbul Bayrampaşa and Caprice Maldives in the Maldives, attended his mother Zekiye Akgündüz's funeral ceremony in Siirt under the supervision of the gendarmerie with permission obtained from the prosecutor's office.
ARGUED WITH THE GENDARMERIE COMMANDER
Akgündüz, who was brought to Siirt under security escort after being released on leave from the prison where he is held, argued with officials when he was taken out of the vehicle in front of the mosque. Akgündüz was seen shouting at the gendarmerie commander, yelling, "I am a representative of this nation, I am not getting back in the car."
JET FADIL'S DEMANDS CAUSED TENSION
According to claims, a disagreement that started over some of Akgündüz's demands grew into an argument. Security teams intervened in the situation. After the tension was brought under control in a short time, the funeral program continued as planned. - SİİRT
