AK Party member Şamil Tayyar made a striking claim regarding Mehmet Akif Ersoy, the General Director of Habertürk TV, who was detained and suspended as part of a drug investigation. Tayyar stated, "The Savings Deposit Insurance Fund (TMSF) was going to remove Ersoy from his position when the drug investigation began, but he couldn't overcome his 'influential' friends. The operation has cleared all obstacles. Considering the latest operations, it is clear that everyone is being affected. No one is untouchable anymore."
As part of the drug investigation conducted by the Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's Office, Habertürk TV General Manager Mehmet Akif Ersoy and three others were detained by the Istanbul Provincial Gendarmerie Command teams.
DISMISSED BY TMSF Mehmet Akif Ersoy was also removed from his position as the General Manager of Habertürk TV by TMSF. In a statement made by Habertürk, the following was stated: "Mehmet Akif Ersoy, the General Manager of Habertürk TV, has been detained as part of an investigation conducted by the Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's Office. For the integrity of the ongoing investigation, Mehmet Akif Ersoy has been suspended from his duties."
SHAMIL TAYYAR'S ALLEGATION THAT WILL CREATE AGENDA While the developments have resonated widely in the public, former AK Party Member of Parliament Shamil Tayyar also made an allegation that will create an agenda regarding Mehmet Akif Ersoy.
Former AK Party Member of Parliament Shamil Tayyar. "HE SURPRISED EVERYONE WHO BELIEVED IN HIM" Tayyar stated the following in a post he made on his X account; "Mehmet Akif Ersoy rose to prominence at a very young age. He made special friends within the state and politics. I think he was captivated by the allure of fame and money. He surprised everyone who believed in him."
"NO ONE IS UNTOUCHABLE ANYMORE" I don't know what his legal situation will be, but it seems difficult for him to recover his professional life. TMSF was supposed to remove Ersoy from his position when the drug investigation began, but he couldn't overcome his 'influential' friends. The operation has broken down all barriers. Considering the latest operations, it is clear that everyone is being touched. No one is untouchable anymore.
