IMAGES EMERGED
Images have emerged regarding the searches conducted at the home of Murat Ongun and his wife Zeynep Ongun, who were detained by the Istanbul Police Department's Financial Crimes Unit as part of the 'corruption and terror' investigation directed at the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality (İBB) and the suspended İBB President Ekrem İmamoğlu.
During the searches, a total of 83,700 TL, 227 dollars, 31,050 euros, and 1,640 pounds were seized from various hidden locations in the house.
Zeynep Ongun stated in her testimony at the police that the 13,800 TL was her son's holiday pocket money, while it was learned during the investigation that the 13,800 TL was seized along with other foreign currencies from the safe.
DMM DENIES PIGGY BANK CLAIMS
On the other hand, it has been revealed that no money was taken from any piggy bank in the house and that such claims are unfounded. In a statement from DMM, it was said, "The claims reported by some media outlets stating, 'The police took 3-5 thousand TL from Murat Ongun's son's piggy bank' are manipulative.
In the operations related to the corruption investigation against the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality (İBB), an attempt is being made to create a perception without mentioning the total amount of cash found in a residence and where it was located.
In addition to 9,800 TL and 20,000 TL found in different locations in the mentioned residence, cash of 31,050 euros, 1,640 pounds, 227 dollars, 20,000 TL, 13,000 TL, 20,000 TL, and 100 TL was seized from a safe.
It has been determined that manipulative news stating, "4-5 thousand lira was taken from a piggy bank" has been circulated regarding this search conducted as part of the investigation.
According to the search report, the mentioned 13,800 TL was taken from the safe along with other foreign currencies and was not taken from any piggy bank. Do not trust unfounded claims," it was stated.
