''IT IS A DISGRACEFUL DECISION''
Kılıçdaroğlu's post is as follows:
''Shame on those who treat journalism as a crime and see journalists as enemies. The arrest of journalist Tolga Şardan is a disgraceful decision. If you have an allegation such as “publicly disseminating misleading information,” then release the report; let everyone learn who is misleading the public and who is lying! The honor of the sentence “We are journalists, we are doing journalism” is enough for Tolga Şardan.''
Gazeteciliği suç sayanlara, gazeteciyi düşman görenlere yazıklar olsun. Gazeteci Tolga Şardan’ın tutuklanması, utanç verici bir karardır. Madem “halkı yanıltıcı bilgiyi alenen yayma” gibi bir iddianız var, açıklayın raporu, kim halkı yanıltıyor, kim yalan söylüyor herkes…
