ÖZGÜR ÖZEL VISITED HER IN PRISONMeanwhile, CHP leader Özgür Özel visited Kayserilioğlu in prison yesterday and made statements afterwards. "LET THEM WRITE IN THEIR DIARIES WHILE CRYING"In an interview on Fatih Portakal's YouTube channel, Kayserilioğlu said that she will not apologize to those who took offense from the term "retarded" and used the following statements: "What I said was this; anyone who goes after an idea without thinking about where it will lead is mentally challenged. If only AKP supporters took offense, then it's not my problem, it's theirs. I'm addressing AKP supporters here, why did you take offense? Those who are not mentally challenged were not offended. I think anyone who took offense needs psychological support. They should either have a chamomile tea or write in their diaries while crying. I do not apologize to anyone who took offense."
