WAS TARGETED BY THE AKP
TÜSİAD had recently become a target of the government. President and AKP Chairman Erdoğan had attacked the TÜSİAD management with harsh words. Subsequently, a new indictment was prepared against Turkish Industry and Business Association (TÜSİAD) Chairman Orhan Turan and High Advisory Council Chairman Mehmet Ömer Arif Aras on charges of "attempting to influence a fair trial" in a chain of events.
