He worked as a night watchman in Ankara between 2007 and 2008.

Between 2010 and 2013, he worked in the hotel industry as a waiter and food and beverage manager.

Between 2013 and 2020, he became a franchise manager at a çiğ köfte chain.

In 2020, he joined the management of Maydonoz Döner as a partner and became the Franchise General Manager.

In 2023, he founded the investment company SEYDAG and managed his shares in Maydonoz Döner through this company.

A LARGE PORTION OF EMPLOYEES ARE SUSPECTS

It was revealed that among the 9,671 employees at Maydonoz Döner, 2,613 individuals had criminal investigation records as a result of the examinations conducted. Furthermore, it was determined that 326 of these employees had judicial records for FETÖ-linked crimes.

Dağlı defended himself by claiming he had no responsibility in this matter, stating:

"I do not conduct research on company owners and partners; I take my money and grant my franchise. All our franchise transactions are officially recorded."

62 MILLION LIRA MONEY TRANSFER

In the report prepared by MASAK, it was revealed that a money flow of 62 million 600 thousand TL was provided from company accounts to individuals considered to be linked to FETÖ. Additionally, it was determined that striking money transfers were made from Cuma Dağlı's personal accounts.

From Dağlı's accounts:

It was determined that a total of 1 million 912 thousand 611 TL was sent to the accounts of 23 people who did not have judicial records within the scope of the FETÖ investigation but had close relatives who were processed for FETÖ.

These transfers were carried out in 173 separate transactions.

TESTIMONY REVEALED

In his defense regarding the money transfers, Cuma Dağlı claimed that he was unaware of these transactions and that the finance department handled these matters.

Dağlı's statements are as follows:

"I did not knowingly send money to any FETÖ/PDY member. All money inflow and outflow transactions made from my accounts are entirely related to commercial activities. I did not engage in any financial activity on behalf of the organization."

However, MASAK reports revealed that the money transfers were suspicious and were sent directly to individuals with FETÖ links.
