Avşar stated that the reason for the loss of 6 lives in the Dilovası fire was negligence and a lack of oversight, and that Minister of Labor and Social Security Vedat Işıkhan and Dilovası Mayor Ramazan Ömeroğlu should resign immediately.
6 people lost their lives and 7 were injured in a fire and explosion at a cosmetics factory in the Dilovası district of Kocaeli. In a statement on his social media account, CHP's Avşar said the following:
Not even a year has passed since the Kartalkaya tragedy, and unfortunately, today we received the painful news that we have lost our lives, our children, in the fire in Dilovası. The cause is the same again: greed, lack of oversight, and incompetence.
Minister of Labor and Social Security, are you aware of the complaint filed with CİMER or not? If you are, which incompetent regional director of yours failed to carry out these inspections there?
Moreover, even though there is an İŞKUR office in the adjacent building, how did you not see this negligence right under your nose? The Ministry of Labor and Social Security is also identified as the primary responsible party in the expert report of the Kartalkaya tragedy. Mr. Minister, resign immediately.
There are no words for the Mayor of Dilovası; if you have any honor, resign immediately. We will no longer allow our nation to pay the price for negligence, lack of oversight, and incompetence with their lives. You will pay the price; you.
