A new statement has come from Şamil Tayyar, a former AK Party MP who drew attention with his remark, "There is a more serious name than the allegations regarding Mehmet Akif Ersoy." Tayyar said, "The common question was: Who is this? The answer is in the testimony of the confidential witness. Tomorrow, these testimony records will be added to the file, will become public, and everyone will learn."
Former Habertürk Editor-in-Chief Mehmet Akif Ersoy and several others were arrested on various charges as part of a drug investigation, while AK Party member Şamil Tayyar made a statement that is expected to attract attention. Tayyar said, "There is someone with more serious allegations than all the claims regarding Mehmet Akif Ersoy, but no action has been taken against him. I don't know if his name will come out over time. I won't give details. Perhaps the investigation may still be ongoing."
NEW STATEMENT FROM ŞAMİL TAYYAR
While everyone is curious about who the person Tayyar claimed is, a new statement has come. Şamil Tayyar did not name anyone again. In a post on his social media account, Tayyar stated: "Since last night, I have experienced a very intense phone traffic. I couldn't respond to most of it. The common question was: Who is this? From the first day, I have not entered the content of the file based on the presumption of innocence, and I will not."
"I DID NOT ACCUSE ANYONE WITH A BROAD-BRUSH APPROACH"
I did not accuse anyone with a broad-brush approach; I hoped that these individuals, who are role models for society, are innocent. My objection here is to the privileges of certain individuals. While those with relatively fewer allegations had their blood and hair samples taken, the fact that the mentioned individual was exempted from even this test, let alone being detained, needs explanation. Because our President has given a blank check to pursue any allegations, regardless of who it touches. No one is untouchable.
"THE ANSWER TO WHO IT IS IS IN THE TESTIMONY OF A SECRET WITNESS"
To return to the question, the answer is in the testimony of a secret witness. Tomorrow, these testimony records will be entered into the file, will become public, and everyone will learn. When action is taken months later, won't a reasonable time for the test have passed? What significance does it have for the individual to be subjected to a test after the drug residue has been eliminated from the body? I advise this individual, whose name will somehow become public one day, to voluntarily participate in a drug test to avoid being under suspicion. If he thinks he is innocent…
