RESPONSE TO ALLEGATIONS FROM THE LAWYERS OF THE FAMOUS INDIVIDUALS
Meanwhile, during the day, İrem Derici's lawyer Ayşegül Mermer made striking statements. Mermer stated, "Many artists and actors are being questioned as part of the ongoing investigation. My client İrem Derici is among them. They are currently giving statements, and after their statements, they will be referred to the Forensic Medicine Institution. My client has not even smoked a cigarette in the last year. She has never committed a crime such as using prohibited substances or encouraging the use of prohibited substances as alleged.
When the report comes, this will become clear. There is currently a confidentiality order on the case. We cannot see the details. After obtaining confirmed information in the following hours, I can provide more accurate information. We do not know why the investigation was opened because there is a confidentiality order; we do not know the details. This is not a detention process; they are being questioned. Those who are abroad, I believe Simge Sağın and Ziynet Sali will be questioned when they return. They are currently being hosted; they are not in custody," she stated.
“THERE IS INFORMATION REGARDING A TIP-OFF”
Dilan Polat's lawyer Sevinç Horoz stated, "We do not know why we are being taken. There is no concrete allegation. A tip-off is being mentioned. There is no information regarding the content of the tip-off. There is nothing specifically requested other than the statement. Our claims and evidence that they did not use drugs are already solid. Reports regarding this are already available. We have also stated that we are ready to provide blood and hair sample tests once again. It is not possible to understand what the events are related to.
This is not a detention; it is a process of taking statements. The statement-giving process of my clients has been completed. They will go for testing. Currently, the statement-taking process of the other suspects is ongoing. After the statements are taken, I do not think there is a possibility of turning into a detention for my clients. Since they tested clean in the previous blood and hair tests, it is established that they did not use drugs. There is information regarding a tip-off, but no information has been provided regarding the content or what it is related to. A short statement of 3-4 questions was given," she said.
