Due to her call for a boycott, TRT has removed Aybüke Pusat from the cast of the series "Teşkilat" and has parted ways with another actor. It has been claimed that Boran Kuzum, who was set to star in the series titled "Bir Ruh Macerası," which will be released on TRT's digital platform Tabii, has also been removed from the project. Kuzum was seen making a supportive post for Pusat.

After the arrest of Ekrem İmamoğlu, CHP Chairman Özgür Özel called for an economic boycott. Aybüke Pusat, the lead actress of the TRT series Teşkilat, also supported the call. Pusat, who made the boycott call on her social media account, had to delete her post after the backlash. TRT, on the other hand, removed Pusat from the cast of the Teşkilat series.
AFTER AYBÜKE PUSAT, BORAN KUZUM HAS ALSO BEEN SEPARATED
Another striking claim has emerged following Aybüke Pusat. According to a report by Birsen Altuntaş, Boran Kuzum, who was planned to be part of the 7 episodes of the series titled "A Soul Adventure" to be shot for TRT's digital platform "tabii", was informed today that they would not be able to work with him "due to the agenda." It was seen that Kuzum also supported Aybüke Pusat with a post that included the note "My dear, beautiful person."
STATEMENT FROM TRT GENERAL MANAGER SOBACI
On the other hand, regarding Aybüke Pusat's removal from the Teşkilat series, TRT General Manager Zahid Sobacı made the following statement on his social media account: "Turkey's public broadcaster TRT is a Turkey brand that enjoys great favor in our country and globally with its quality broadcasting and content. Protecting TRT's reputation and brand power is one of the most important responsibilities of TRT management. Companies and individuals working with TRT also know the principles of public broadcasting and take on the responsibility to act in accordance with these principles while being part of a TRT project."
VIOLATION OF TRT'S PRINCIPLES
It is absolutely unacceptable for individuals involved in projects of TRT, which represents our nation, to be part of a political campaign that is clearly initiated by a political party (thus prominently political in nature), targets our country's economy, aims to design politics and society, and polarizes the nation, as long as the project continues. Being used as a tool for a boycott call launched for the political purposes of a political group constitutes a clear violation of TRT's principles, the understanding of public broadcasting, and professional integrity. Furthermore, it is unreasonable to expect that one can participate in TRT productions while simultaneously supporting a boycott call that includes unfounded claims against TRT.
THE SCRIPT OF THE SERIES WILL BE REVISED
In this context, the posts of an actor involved in the Teşkilat series broadcast on TRT 1 do not align with TRT's corporate principles at all. The individual in question has been removed from the series due to posts that disappointed the viewers of the Teşkilat series. Although stock episodes of the series have been filmed, the script of the series will be revised. No one should doubt that necessary steps will be taken for similar situations."
