In a statement on his social media account, Tayyar stated that the detention period was extended because Epözdemir did not provide his phone password, saying, "Many 'influential' names, especially Mehmet Uçum, have stepped in and besieged Chief Public Prosecutor Akın Gürlek. Gürlek is overwhelmed by the intense pressure he did not even face in the İmamoğlu file, and he is worried about a smear campaign being launched against him."
