Former Minister of Energy and Natural Resources Taner Yıldız vehemently denied claims that he carried out high-volume transactions in investment funds.
IT IS A LIE AND A SLANDER
In his statement titled "Mandatory statement to the public," Yıldız used the following expressions:
"The claims put forward using my name, which are not based on any concrete information, document, or fact, are completely untrue, lies, and slander. Since the claimants cannot substantiate their claims with concrete and verifiable documents, they are expected to immediately correct their news reports and publicly apologize to the public."
LEGAL PROCESS WARNING INCLUDING COMPENSATION
"Otherwise, I would like to inform the public that, within the scope of protecting my personal rights, I will exercise all my legal and statutory rights to the fullest, including compensation, and that I will initiate the necessary legal proceedings."
