''I APOLOGIZE TO EVERYONE AGAIN''
Following the widespread attention Aybike Çelik's allegations received on social media, Can Tunaboylu released a statement: "Dear listeners and followers, I am truly sorry to be in the news with such an incident. Unfortunately, since the matter was already taken to the judiciary by both parties long before this statement, which contains many claims contrary to the truth, please excuse my silence for now in order not to harm the confidentiality of the investigation and not to damage the presumption of innocence, the value of which I understand very well today. However, I will suffice by stating that when the judicial process is concluded, it will be revealed with all evidence that the facts are very different from what has been told, and I would like to respectfully remind you that slander is also a crime. I am deeply saddened to be one of the subjects of a case that abuses the rightful struggle of women who are victims of violence. Finally, I would like to inform you that I have decided to take a break for a while so as not to harm my bandmates and the very valuable team we work with until the judicial process is concluded and the allegations against me are resolved. I respect our social reflex and I apologize to everyone again for occupying the agenda in this way" he said.
