CHP General Chairman Özgür Özel made statements regarding the agenda at his party's group meeting. Özel brought to the agenda the police waiting for minutes at the door of singer Serdar Ortaç, who was subject to a detention order in an illegal betting investigation, and calling him for questioning, saying, "While inviting Ortaç for questioning, they broke down Ahmet Özer's door and slammed his wife against the wall."
Key points from CHP leader Özel's statements are as follows; "When the AK Party came to power, the minimum wage was 184 lira, and a quarter gold was 27 lira. The monthly cost of the AK Party for civil servants is 7 quarter gold. The monthly cost of the AK Party for each retiree is 5.5 quarter gold. As CHP, we would like to express our two most important agendas as follows. The President of the Retirees' Association said we cannot even wait for January 1. They should let us breathe. We propose as CHP; the retirement salary should be equivalent to the minimum wage, and immediately this month, a minimum wage should be deposited for every retiree. Our demand for the minimum wage is 30,000 TL. We are not here below this figure. We will continue to protest and fight. We will make this country narrow for you."
"CRITICISM OF 'INFLUENCE AGENCY'"
Özel criticized the 'influence agency' regulation expected to come to the Parliament in the coming days, saying, "They brought it last legislative year, we resisted, and they withdrew it. Now they want to bring it back with the notary regulation. They want to bring it as a stick against the opposition, opposition journalists, and villagers protecting their village. The nation sent representatives here, and there are legal friends. When a foreign country's contractor is caught here, we can give one and a half years of punishment. But if it is as you wrote, YÖK will not allocate money for external activities, academics will find funding, and they will say you are an influence agent. A journalist finds funding from abroad and publishes, they will say you are an influence agent. Authoritarianism is contagious; they learn from each other. The patent for this influence agency is with Mr. Putin. Then Georgia and Kyrgyzstan followed. A decision has been made in the NATO Parliamentary Assembly that this regulation is a threat to democracy. We also have members, even Faik Öztrak is in a managerial position. 10 of the 18 members are from AKP and MHP. These 10 friends signed saying it is against democracy in NATO. It is easy for State Bey; he can expel two from the party. Your representatives are signing against democracy in May. Red alert! Just like in the animal rights and violence against women law, red alert! All our deputies will do everything they can to prevent the influence agency law from passing," he said.
AHMET ÖZER'S ARREST
Making a statement regarding the arrested and appointed trustee Esenyurt Mayor Ahmet Özer, Özel used the following expressions; "Ahmet Özer is still detained. There is an allegation about Serdar Ortaç, they went to his house at night. They knocked on the door, and when they didn't hear, they waited for him to wake up. When he woke up and opened the door, they invited him for questioning. This is the truth. They broke down Ahmet Özer's door, slammed his wife against the wall, and discredited him under those conditions as if he were a live bomb. They did not allow a lawyer into the house during the search. They threw a lot of lies with the so-called evidence they found. They say he talked on the phone with Remzi Kartal, but there is no evidence. Even if he talked, he was an academic at that time. If it makes a difference whether he is from AKP or not, what kind of legal system is this? What terrorist organization member? We said if Ahmet Özer appointed these PKK members, let us see them too, but they did not let us in for 12 days. Finally, we got in. They said, did you see the trustee? May the devil see his face! They showed the rooms of the elected CHP members openly. They couldn't show any of the trustee's rooms. An AKP member enters as if he is entering his father's house, but it is forbidden for CHP. Why? They will fabricate evidence against Ahmet Özer. They are trying to bring Akın down as much as possible; if he doesn't fall, Akın runs there. If a judge is successful, he does not move from his place. If a judge is unsuccessful, you transfer him. Akın Gürlek is like a ping-pong ball. He goes around and kills. Now he is doing an operation to keep Ahmet Özer inside. Instead of Akın's non-transfer compensation, we will cover the geographical compensation for the transfer by placing his wife in the SPK. I did not deal with the family, and I will not. But if being appointed to the SPK is in accordance with conscience, I apologize to the lady. But Akın Gürlek has something to pull from me."
ERDOĞAN'S NOVEMBER 10 SPEECH
Responding to President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, who said, "The exploiters of Atatürk have gone so far as to embrace terrorist organizations and their various extensions," Özel said, "The person sitting in Atatürk's chair says everything that comes to his mouth about Atatürk's party and its administrators. Everything I said from this podium is that. We went to Mardin and got on the DEM bus. When we went, we spoke from a bus with civilian plates, neither on top nor inside. The president of the country uses what I said, TRT broadcasts it all over the country, and those who hear it say enough to me and do politics. Come on, you don't show up on TV, at least don't do it from that podium. The bus is out there, its plate is civilian. Ahmet Türk is so polite that he said let me step back. No, Mr. President, I said I will come out here with whoever the people of Mardin elected. Erdoğan says; he is lying, he is not sincere. Tayyip Bey, you are the one who goes to Siirt, sees the crowd in the square, then reads poetry and becomes banned, you are the one who, when your party comes to power, is not even a deputy, you are the one who appoints a trustee to the president of Siirt, who received 65% of the votes in the last election. This is insincerity!"
