"WE STRONGLY CONDEMN IT"
Speaking about the incident, Yeniden Refah Party Arnavutköy District Chair and district mayoral candidate Abdulrezzak İlbeyi said, "It would be unfair to name anyone as the perpetrator. We strongly condemn it. The part we are relieved about is that our friend in the driver's seat was not harmed."
The driver, Levent Selçuk, who was in the vehicle during the attack, said, "Before I could understand what was happening, I got out and saw a person in the opposite area, but I couldn't identify them. We condemn it; such a thing should not happen. They fired 3 shots," he said.
