Before today's party congress trial in the CHP, former Chairman Hikmet Çetin made a claim that could create a stir. Çetin stated that Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu is making intense efforts for a decision of absolute nullity in the case and has been in contact with high-level figures, saying, "If you pay attention, he once said things like 'Wherever I am, that is the headquarters.' He is preparing accordingly."

Former CHP Chairman Hikmet Çetin made important statements regarding the agenda after his meetings with MHP Chairman Devlet Bahçeli and then MHP Deputy Chairman Feti Yıldız in recent days.

CLAIM ABOUT KILIÇDAROĞLU THAT WILL CAUSE A STIR

Speaking to Cansu Çamlıbel from T24, Çetin evaluated the CHP's 'Congress case' to be discussed today, the imprisoned Istanbul Metropolitan Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu, Selahattin Demirtaş, and the political agenda. Çetin stated that he predicts a decision of 'absolute nullity' will come out of the Congress case, claiming that the former Chairman of CHP, Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, is "working very hard on this issue and is in contact with the highest levels."

"OUR FORMER CHAIRMAN IS WORKING VERY HARD ON THIS ISSUE"

Çetin responded to a question directed at him regarding the Congress case: "I predict that a decision will come out declaring our 2023 congress as 'absolute nullity.' The appointment of a trustee to the Istanbul organization, as you reminded me, was a sign of this. I believe a decision of 'absolute nullity' will come from Ankara because our former Chairman is working very hard on this issue." Çamlıbel asked Çetin, "Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu?" Çetin replied, "Yes."

"IN CONTACT WITH THE HIGHEST LEVELS"

Çamlıbel stated that Çetin claimed Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu is not only quietly observing the process but is also actively working to cancel the congress, and asked if he had any information to support this claim. Çetin responded to the question, "I believe he is also in contact with the highest levels."

When Çetin was asked, "Are you referring to President Erdoğan and his close circle? So, in your opinion, a clear signal was given to him, and he is preparing accordingly, right?" he answered: "Yes. If you pay attention, he said things like 'Wherever I am, the Headquarters is there' at one point. He is preparing accordingly."
