It has been learned that four of the lieutenants expelled from the Turkish Armed Forces, except for the top of their class, Ebru Eroğlu, have rented a shared apartment in Ankara to follow the case. Since they have no income, the lieutenants are struggling to pay the rent and expenses amounting to 33,000 TL, and it has been revealed that a businessman has extended a helping hand to them.
After the graduation ceremony, 5 lieutenants who shouted "We are the soldiers of Mustafa Kemal" while crossing swords were expelled from the Turkish Armed Forces (TSK) with the announced decision.
THEY RENTED A COMMON HOUSE
Saygı Öztürk, a writer for Sözcü Newspaper, reported that the young lieutenants expelled from the TSK stayed in Ankara, and except for the top student Ebru Eroğlu, four of them rented a common house to follow the case.
"HIS MOTHER AND FATHER DID NOT KNOW HE WAS EXPELLED FROM TSK"
Öztürk included the following statements in his article; "I heard from a lieutenant who was expelled from the TSK that his mother and father living in the village did not know he was expelled from the TSK. The lieutenants filed a lawsuit for the suspension of the execution and later annulment of the High Disciplinary Board's decision. The only way for them to return to duty will be possible through a court decision.
Regarding the lawsuits opened in Ankara, they go to their lawyers' offices almost every day. They don't have many places to go. Their morale is low. Yes, those who know them express their joy at their saying "We are the soldiers of Mustafa Kemal," but they were expelled before they could even experience the excitement of going to the Infantry School and taking their courses.
"A BUSINESSMAN WANTED TO HELP"
The lieutenants rented a house together to follow their case. However, since they have no income, it is also difficult for them to pay the rent of 33 thousand lira and the fuel and maintenance costs of the house. When a businessman learned about their situation, he wanted to help. However, they were not very inclined to accept it. When the businessman said, "My father was also a former military academy student," a warmth developed between them. I learned that they accepted this support with hesitation.
