ALLEGATION OF "PRESSURE ON THE COMMITTEE" I am receiving reports that pressure is being applied to the 7-member committee, whose names are known, that prepared this preliminary report, which does not mention our Bolu Municipality, which determined that the fire broke out on the 4th floor of the hotel, and where the responsible and at-fault individuals are listed one by one, that the report has not been received, and that even the expert committee may be dismissed from their duties.
"PRIMARILY INCLUDING 2 RELEVANT MINISTERS..." I am sharing 3 pages of the report that we have in full with the public. I warn the government, primarily including the 2 relevant ministers, about this historical mistake, liability, and crime."
