The Grain Board announced that reports regarding the seizure of its wheat are not true. It was stated that the seizure actions are related to the wheat receivables of a company in relation to its debts.
The Turkish Grain Board (TMO) announced that the news regarding the 'seizure of wheat belonging to TMO' does not reflect the truth, and that the seizure actions are related to the wheat receivables of the relevant company against its debts.
DENIAL OF SEIZURE CLAIMS BY TMO
The news about the seizure of wheat belonging to the Turkish Grain Board (TMO) has caused confusion. TMO denied the claims in a statement regarding the issue.
In a statement made on TMO's social media account, the following was stated: "The news stating that 'seizures have been applied to the wheat belonging to TMO' published in some media outlets does not reflect the truth. Our institution has no relation to the seizure actions mentioned in the news. The wheat payment has been fully paid to our institution by the company under the cash sales contracts signed on January 7, 2025.
"THE SEIZURE ACTION IS DIRECTED AT THE DEBTOR COMPANY, NOT TMO"
However, due to the company's debts to banks and various companies, the company's wheat receivable from our institution has been seized by the Mardin and Şanlıurfa Enforcement Offices. Therefore, the seizure actions are not directed at the stocks belonging to our institution, but solely at the wheat receivables of the relevant company against its debts. Our institution is meticulously following the process and fulfilling all its legal obligations completely."
