Fatih Altaylı's jab at Kılıçdaroğlu over Rıza Akpolat: 'The person who made him a candidate is by his side'

The statements made by Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, who was brought to the CHP Chairmanship with a decision of absolute nullity, during a live broadcast continue to occupy the agenda.

Journalist Fatih Altaylı made evaluations regarding Kılıçdaroğlu's use of the Beşiktaş Municipality as an example within the scope of his "purification" rhetoric.

Altaylı reminded that the influential figure in the re-nomination of the imprisoned Beşiktaş Mayor Rıza Akpolat was Erdoğan Toprak, and that Toprak is currently standing by Kılıçdaroğlu's side today.

"HE IS USING BEŞİKTAŞ MUNICIPALITY AS AN EXAMPLE"

In his article today titled "Where is Rıza Akpolat's patron now!", Altaylı used the following expressions:

"While CHP trustee Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu talks about 'purification', he constantly uses the Beşiktaş Municipality as an example and implies that Beşiktaş Mayor Rıza Akpolat is 'dirty' by saying, 'I told Özgür Özel not to nominate the Beşiktaş Mayor.'

To be honest, if they asked me, I would also say do not nominate Rıza Akpolat, but when it is Kılıçdaroğlu—who told others not to nominate Rıza Akpolat, who previously made Murat Hazinedar a candidate, and then personally nominated Rıza Akpolat himself—saying this, I can understand why this statement is not given any credibility."

Stating in his article that the real debate is the candidacy process of Rıza Akpolat, Altaylı noted that the person influential in the candidacy was Erdoğan Toprak.

Altaylı used the following expressions in his article:

"And let's come to the real issue.

Who is the CHP member who pressured the CHP Headquarters to nominate Rıza Akpolat for Beşiktaş Mayor once again, and who is, in a sense, Rıza Akpolat's patron?

The whole CHP knows the answer. You should learn it too.

The person who ensured Rıza Akpolat's nomination and, in a sense, made him the Beşiktaş Mayor is Erdoğan Toprak."

"BY KILIÇDAROĞLU'S SIDE"

Continuing his article, Altaylı stated that Erdoğan Toprak is by Kılıçdaroğlu's side today and made the following assessment:

"Well, where is Mr. Erdoğan now?

By Kılıçdaroğlu's side.

The trustee's understanding of purification is exactly this.

'If he is one of us, there is no need for purification.'

If this understanding sounds familiar to you from somewhere, it is also familiar in terms of showing the roots of the trustee."
