The Chairman of the CHP, Özgür Özel, claimed that there is a new 'audio recording' related to the case of the CHP Istanbul Provincial Presidency, which has been appointed a trustee. Özel alleged that in the said audio recording, a person can be heard saying, "Let us give you money, vote for us," and he asserted that this person is Nevzat Cebeci, a Beykoz Municipal Council member who joined the AK Party along with Özlem Vural Gürzel, the Deputy Mayor of Beykoz who resigned from the CHP.

CHP General Chairman Özgür Özel made statements to the press before the Central Executive Board (MYK) meeting to be held at the former Istanbul Provincial Directorate building in Sarıyer, which was converted into a working office after Gürsel Tekin was appointed as a trustee.
Özel responded to President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, who referred to the party congress and convention lawsuits by saying, "We are not part of the discussions in the CHP," during his speech at the AK Party Organization Academy Closing Program held at the Haliç Congress Center.
"THERE IS A NEW AUDIO RECORDING, THEY TELL SOMEONE 'LET US GIVE YOU MONEY, GIVE US YOUR VOTE'" Özel used the following expressions: "Today, someone comes out saying 'honest politics.' CHP says, you see, they say. The complainant is a CHP member, the one being complained about is a CHP member, they say. There are audio recordings, they say. What does it have to do with me, they say. There is one audio recording, friends, just one. You know that the previous one was determined to be edited and invalid. There is a new audio recording. In the audio recording, they tell someone, 'let us give you money, give us your vote.' It is the audio recording of that one person and the situation that emerged with another person giving this recording. Bomb! The person in the audio recording is going to the AK Party with the Beykoz Mayor, who resigned today along with the municipal council member. The other person in the audio recording is now the detained Ekrem Başkan, another person who has said a lot against the Republican People's Party, a confessor. Someone who is inside. Someone who has said a lot.
"THE PERSON IN THAT AUDIO RECORDING IS JOINING THE AK PARTY" The man in the audio recording they used to appoint trustees for this building, or rather for these managers, is joining the AK Party. He is one of the municipal council members who resigned from the CHP. In the audio recording, there is neither Özgür Çelik nor anyone else. Let me give you a small detail. The person saying 'give us your vote' is not Özgür Çelik; he is already a candidate on the opposing list. A candidate on the opposing list. I have no intention of accusing the opposing list of anything. The man himself is already writing 180, 196 delegates. In a place where 600 people vote, 550, 560 people are already candidates. But the ones asking for our votes from the opposing list are now joining the AK Party today.
WHAT HAPPENED? Özlem Vural Gürzel, who was elected as the Deputy Mayor after the Beykoz Mayor Alaattin Köseler was arrested and removed from office as part of an investigation initiated by the Beykoz Chief Public Prosecutor's Office for "interfering with a tender" and "establishing, joining, and aiding an organization for committing a crime," announced that she had resigned from the CHP. Following Vural, CHP Beykoz Municipal Council members Nevzat Cebeci, Uğur Gökdemir, and Murat Uzun also resigned from their parties. Gürzel and Cebeci, who joined the AK Party today, were presented their badges by President and AK Party Chairman Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.
