The words of Engin Polat, who testified in the trial, angered the judge: "Stop advertising."

"Establishing and managing an organization with the intention of committing a crime", "money laundering of assets derived from crime", and "violation of the Law on the Organization of Betting and Games of Chance in Football and Other Sports Competitions" are among the crimes for which Dilan and Engin Polat, along with 4 detained and 28 defendants, appeared before the 2nd Criminal Court of First Instance in Anatolia for the first time. Engin Polat's words angered the judge.

WARNING FROM THE JUDGE TO ENGİN POLAT

Detained Engin Polat, Sezgin Polat, Alper Kürşat Polat, and Ahmet Gün were present in the courtroom. Dilan Polat, Sıla Doğu, and Can Doğu, among other defendants who were not detained, also attended the trial. After the identification of the defendants, their defenses are being heard. Journalist Emrullah Erdinç, who provided details of the trial, said that Engin Polat came to court in a black suit and stated, "Engin said, 'I don't know how to defend myself since there is no evidence in the indictment. I didn't meet anyone in Cyprus. I don't know about Jasminbet site or any money coming into my accounts.' When Engin Polat mentioned the companies, Judge Engin Polat warned him during his advertisement. He said, 'Don't advertise'."

ENGİN POLAT: I DENY THE ACCUSATIONS, I DEMAND ACQUITTAL

Erdinç conveyed Engin Polat's statement as follows: "A big organization is being mentioned. But despite allegedly being involved in illegal betting for 7 years, it is clear that I have no contact with these individuals and nothing came up in the money laundering report, and it is evident that my earnings are from the companies. Everything was built on witness testimonies without concrete evidence. Secret witness Mert. Everything started with this person. I believe that someone set up a plot against me and my companies to harm us. I believe that some of the witnesses wanted to benefit from us. I do not accept the indictment and all the accusations, there is no concrete evidence. I want the management of our companies to be returned to us from the trustee. I request release and acquittal."
