The leader of the CHP, Özgür Özel, booed the Çatalca Mufti Ahmet Mehmetalioğlu, who said "He died on stage," following the passing of artist Volkan Konak, during a rally he held in Şişli. Özel stated, "I do not let anyone be booed in the squares, but boo this dishonorable, shameless immoral person, this devil disguised as a clergyman."
Master artist Volkan Konak collapsed on stage while giving a concert in Cyprus. After the first intervention, Konak passed away in the hospital he was taken to. Following Konak's death, the Mufti of Çatalca, Ahmet Mehmetalioğlu, made a scandalous statement.
"HE WHO DRINKS FOR US WILL BURN FOR US"
Mehmetalioğlu's words, "He died on stage. Now they will ask us; how did you know? Our answer is this. We knew him this way. He who drinks for us will burn for us," caused outrage.
ÖZEL BOOED THE MUFTI OF ÇATALCA
CHP Chairman Özgür Özel, who organized a rally in Şişli with the slogan "Defending the Will of the Nation," reacted to Mehmetalioğlu with harsh words. Özel had the crowd boo Mehmetalioğlu.
"BOO THIS DEVIL IN THE FORM OF A CLERIC"
Özel said: "You know Ahmet Mehmetalioğlu, the Mufti of Çatalca. I don't usually have anyone booed in the squares, but boo this shameless immoral person, this devil in the form of a cleric. Volkan Abi, Volkan Konak has died. This person made unacceptable remarks about Volkan Konak. He said disgusting things about Volkan Konak. I will not repeat his bad words in this beautiful environment. I said, 'Remove him from duty.' 'We have opened an investigation.' They are still investigating. Do you know what my Çatalca Mayor has done? He has named the street where this dishonorable person comes and goes every day Volkan Konak Street. But in every letter he receives, it will say Volkan Konak Street. From here, I say to him, 'Will you continue with this Ahmet, or will you remove him? Wherever you send him, with God's permission, if it is a place belonging to our municipality, we will also name that street Volkan Konak.'
