Yavaş shared the following on his social media account:
The developments that have occurred one after another in recent days are deeply wounding the concept of justice.
The arrest of Zafer Party Chairman Ümit Özdağ on the grounds of inciting the public to hatred and hostility is incompatible with the principles of freedom of expression and democracy.
Arrest should be a tool of justice, and it must never become a method of oppression or silencing. Where there is no justice, there is neither peace nor a future!
