AKP's Özlem Zengin calls for 'İmamoğlu indictment': 'I think you don't know either'

In the second wave of the İBB operation, Gözdem Ongun, the wife of İBB Media A.Ş. President Murat Ongun, who is not a municipal employee, was also arrested.

Journalist Soner Yalçın wrote that the money in the cardboard piggy bank of the Ongun family's son, Koray, was confiscated, and that they attempted to 'pull' the earrings from their daughter's ears, mistaking them for gold.

Speaking about the allegations in the Grand National Assembly of Turkey (TBMM), AKP Group Deputy Chair Özlem Zengin said, "If a person's family has been touched, we will all react to this together.

If there is anything related to money coming out of a piggy bank or earrings in a young girl's ears, we will follow this through to the end together," she said. Stating that numerous allegations are circulating in the public sphere, Zengin said, "The indictment must be written as soon as possible."

Zengin used the following expressions in her speech:

"If there is anything related to money coming out of a piggy bank or earrings in a young girl's ears, we will follow this through to the end together. We will look at what is happening. Of course, we will say that it should not happen.

We will say that such a thing should not happen, but I am telling you that there is no such thing related to a piggy bank in this record.

'THE INDICTMENT MUST BE PREPARED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE'

Now, as a result, the issue here is beyond this. Beyond this. We do not know this file. I think you don't know it either. We have not seen the indictment. I think our call from here should be this: This indictment must be written as soon as possible. Because when the indictment is written, each of us will have the opportunity to see it. In other words, the indictment should be announced to the public as soon as possible, and if that happens, these discussions and the things you are saying, which exceed the scope—I mean, you are saying very terrible things.

'YOU ARE USING THE EXPRESSION 'PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE' INCORRECTLY'

You say coup, you say junta; we return these to you. What does coup mean, what does junta mean? Now, such a thing is not possible. Oh, and you are using an interesting expression. You say: 'The Republican People's Party's presidential candidate'. Look, I think you are using this expression very incorrectly. This existed before as well.

If you remember, in the last election, you were bringing people onto the stage and introducing 9 people as 'Here is our vice presidential candidate'. You were introducing them as 'Here is our president'. Now, presidential candidacy is a legal title. You become a candidate; is he officially a presidential candidate right now? It is not official for you either. Look, candidacy does not work like that.

Candidacy is high-value, my dear friends, look, we are all members of parliament. There are many legal experts among my friends here. We all know what procedure is required for a person to acquire this title.

You can say: You can say our probable, desired, wished-for presidential candidate. Moreover, when all these processes first started, you had not yet held your votes. Therefore, when you say these things, you are describing the issue with concepts that are far beyond the meaning and scope of the matter.

'THIS IS NEITHER A COUP NOR A JUNTA'

What should happen here is that I also say let us follow these processes together in the most legally correct and fastest way possible. But ultimately, this is neither a coup nor a junta. We came here by being elected. Which junta are you talking about? The president of this country, all the members of parliament currently in the assembly in this country, we were all elected by the will of the people and we are here. You cannot make such speeches here by rejecting this will. We vehemently reject this. As a result, my dear friends, this is my introduction here.
