"I AM FORCED TO BE SAD"
Hasan İmamoğlu made the following statement:
"I am very sad, I am forced to be sad. I founded this company in 1968. Since that day, I have given my life to these companies.
The state has decided to seize them. We have already been closed since the 23rd. 7-8 people came.
I have a lot to say, but I can no longer speak out of sadness. I have taxes to pay, I have money, but I cannot pay my taxes.
Because I cannot engage in any activity. I had goods, I haven't been able to sell them for days.
I said the following to those who came to the company I founded in 1968: If you have come to save this place, you are welcome; if you have come to destroy it, I have nothing to say. I came from the fields, and if necessary, I will go back to my field."
