Ersan Şen answers the question: 'Would you defend Eylem Tok's son?'

While Eylem Tok and her son, who were captured in an operation in Boston following the issuance of a Red Notice, await their appearance before a judge in America, it is expected that they will be sent to Turkey to stand trial after the upcoming court proceedings.

In light of these developments, the question of who would take on the role of defense attorney for Eylem Tok and her son in their trial in Turkey has also been a topic of discussion on social media.

After a social media user pointed to lawyer Prof. Dr. Ersan Şen—who represented two contractor brothers who fled abroad after 51 people lost their lives in an earthquake in Gaziantep—this possibility was widely debated.

KÜBRA PAR ASKED ERSAN ŞEN

This topic, which moved to social media, was put directly to Ersan Şen by Kübra Par during a live broadcast on tv100. Lawyer Ersan Şen answered the question, "If Eylem Tok came to you, would you take her son's case?" by saying, "If we agree on the terms, it could happen."

The following dialogue took place between Par and Şen on the live broadcast:

Ersan Şen: If we agree on the terms, it could happen.

Kübra Par: Has an offer come in?

Ersan Şen: No, no. Generally, many files from across the 81 provinces pass across my desk. Think of me like an imam...

ERSAN ŞEN: EYLEM TOK WILL NOT BE FOUND GUILTY OF KIDNAPPING HER CHILD

Evaluating the Eylem Tok case during the live broadcast, Şen explained what the charges against Eylem Tok would be.

Şen stated the following: Eylem Tok is not guilty for taking her child away. She would be guilty if she destroyed evidence. Eylem Tok will be tried for causing death by negligence by providing the vehicle.
