Başarır claims Yerlikaya provided security detail to former MHP deputy accused of gold smuggling

CHP Group Deputy Chairman Ali Mahir Başarır alleged that after he told MHP Chairman Devlet Bahçeli to "shut your mouth and sit at home," he received death threats from various figures, including the Grey Wolves (Ülkü Ocakları), members of parliament, and provincial chairs, and that he subsequently requested a security detail, which Interior Minister Ali Yerlikaya rejected last week. Başarır stated, "However, three deputies resigned from the MHP. The allegation was that they were involved in gold smuggling. One of them was the Bolu deputy. He just recently provided security to the Bolu deputy. Ali Yerlikaya provided it."

Başarır claims Yerlikaya provided security detail to former MHP deputy accused of gold smuggling

Connecting to a Sözcütv broadcast to evaluate the allegations on the agenda, Başarır spoke as follows:

“Levent is a Mersin deputy, the owner of Nişantaşı University, a wealthy person. Why is the image of a car that belongs to him being shared with the public as if it were assets acquired by innocent people through money laundering? And why is the investigation proceeding this way.

Because this entire investigation is like this. The secret witnesses are like this, the asset allegations are like this, there is nothing in the MASAK report, but it is being described in a completely different way.

That is why it is very important. This file has collapsed. There is a schizophrenic situation.

And 4 or 5 writers, one of them is Cem Küçük. Another is Zafer Şahin. Another is Nedim Şener. Another is Abdülkadir Selvi. Together with the trolls under them, innocent people are in prison today. The same things were being done during the FETÖ era. Many journalists are in prison. Cem Küçük will be one of them in the future. They have personally interfered with law and justice. They are collectively creating a perception. They are gathering supporters by explaining an investigation that has no dirty evidence to the public.

“THEY ARE COMPLETELY COMMITTING FRAUD"

Cem Küçük said that my license plate was given to a media boss. I shared all the license plates of my vehicles registered with the Parliament. Can I give my license plate to someone? It is impossible. They are completely committing fraud. This vehicle incident requires them all to be tried. MHP Deputy Levent Uysal needs to file a criminal complaint against them.

“ALI YERLIKAYA GRANTED THE SECURITY PERMISSION"

The Interior Minister says he is doing his job well, that people are not being wiretapped, and that jammers are not being used. Because of my statement regarding Devlet Bahçeli, nearly 40 people, including the Grey Wolves, deputies, and provincial chairs, threatened me with death. I also requested a security detail. The Interior Minister rejected this request last week. But 3 deputies resigned from the MHP. The allegation was that they were involved in gold smuggling. One of them was the Bolu deputy. He just recently provided security to the Bolu deputy. Ali Yerlikaya provided it. I am saying this because I am certain. To the MHP Bolu deputy. The point Turkey has reached explains exactly this.

WHAT HAD HAPPENED?

In November 2024, allegations emerged that three deputies who resigned from the MHP were smuggling gold from Dubai to Turkey using VIP lounges.
