Gürsel Tekin, who was appointed as a trustee to the CHP Istanbul Provincial Presidency, entered the party building yesterday accompanied by hundreds of police, causing significant tension in the area at that moment.
"IF I WANTED, I WOULD HAVE COME WITH 30 THOUSAND PEOPLE"
Previously stating, "I won't enter the CHP building with police," Tekin responded to CHP Deputy Chairman Ensar Aytekin's reaction of slamming the table and saying, "Can you come here with 5 thousand people? For God's sake," by saying, "If I wanted, I would have come with 30 thousand people."
CHP RESPONDS TO TEKIN'S WORDS
CHP Deputy Chairman Suat Özçağdaş, who was in the besieged CHP Istanbul Provincial Building, spoke about Tekin's statements on Halk TV's Main News. Özçağdaş noted that Tekin was still on the 2nd floor, stating, "There is no benefit in constantly firing like a blank gun. He is not a CHP member. Gürsel Tekin came here with 3-5 fraudsters. Therefore, this is Gürsel Tekin. The real issue is not Gürsel Tekin; our citizen named Gürsel Tekin is an apparatus."
Sharing the latest developments from the besieged building, Suat Özçağdaş said, "Gürsel Tekin is still on the 2nd floor. I don't know why he is staying there. This is the working office of the CHP Chairman, and since he is someone whose membership rights have been suspended, there is no need for him to stay there after attacking the CHP building with 5 thousand people behind him. We expect him to leave this building. Similarly, we expect the law enforcement officers to return to their homes now."
"THERE IS NO NEED TO EXAGGERATE GÜRSEL TEKİN"
Özçağdaş said: "Right now, I am on the 3rd floor of our Chairman Özgür Özel's working office. Unfortunately, there are still police on some floors, and there is someone who has the audacity to enter this building with police as a trustee. This building is our Chairman's working office. We expect them to leave the building as soon as possible. As of now, the tension has decreased. As of yesterday, this was our Istanbul Provincial Presidency. Today, it is our Chairman's working office. Tomorrow it could be somewhere else. What matters is not entering buildings, but entering hearts. It is impossible for some to enter that heart.
Gürsel Tekin is still on the 2nd floor. I don't know why he is staying there. This is the working office of the CHP Chairman, and since he is someone whose membership rights have been suspended, there is no need for him to stay there after attacking the CHP building with 5 thousand people behind him. We expect him to leave this building. Similarly, we expect the law enforcement officers to return to their homes now. Gürsel Tekin speaks; he had previously stated that he resigned from the CHP, but it has been understood that he did not resign. There is no benefit in constantly firing like a blank gun. He is not a CHP member. Gürsel Tekin came here with 3-5 fraudsters. Therefore, this is Gürsel Tekin. The real issue is not Gürsel Tekin; our citizen named Gürsel Tekin is an apparatus. There is no need to exaggerate Gürsel Tekin. The real issue is between the oppression of the AKP and its politicized judiciary and the CHP."
