Following Bahçeli's reaction, AKP's Tayyar makes statement on indictment: Court has set a date

Tayyar stated, "As the course of the investigation, which deepens with every confession, extended the interrogation process, grumblings naturally began. Both Devlet Bey, other MHP executives, and the relatives of the suspects have expressed their concerns.

It is true that as the time drags on, speculations increase, politics becomes tense, and society becomes uneasy. I have heard that the Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's Office, which is conducting the investigation, has begun writing the indictment," he said.

Speaking about the allegations that 'protection' was provided to Aziz İhsan Aktaş, who benefited from effective remorse in the IMM investigation, Tayyar said, "After the house arrest of the confessor Aziz İhsan Aktaş was lifted, the Istanbul Governor's Office assigned 1 guard due to threats.

He already had around 15/20 private guards. In summary, the court is being established in September. Everyone will lay their cards on the table," he said.

The house arrest decision for Aziz İhsan Aktaş, who was arrested as part of the investigation into the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality (IMM) on allegations of being a "criminal organization leader" and was released under judicial control with house arrest after giving a statement benefiting from effective remorse, has been lifted. Many CHP politicians and bureaucrats were arrested due to the statements made by Aktaş. Tayyar made a noteworthy post on his social media account regarding the IMM investigation.

Şamil Tayyar's social media post is as follows:

"IMM investigation.

Recent discussions have focused on 2 issues:

1/ The submission schedule of the indictment.

2/ The situation of Aziz İhsan Aktaş.

As the course of the investigation, which deepens with every confession, extended the interrogation process, grumblings naturally began.

Both Devlet Bey, other MHP executives, and the relatives of the suspects have expressed their concerns.

It is true that as the time drags on, speculations increase, politics becomes tense, and society becomes uneasy.

I have heard that the Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's Office, which is conducting the investigation, has begun writing the indictment.

However, contrary to expectations, there will be 4 separate indictments.

The first will be submitted to the court in September, and the other three in October.

If the calendar does not slip, the court phase begins in September, or at the latest in October.

Moving the process forward by 2/3 months before the new year is important in every respect.

As for the other matter.

After the house arrest of the confessor Aziz İhsan Aktaş was lifted, the Istanbul Governor's Office assigned 1 guard due to threats. He already had around 15/20 private guards.

In summary, the court is being established in September.

Everyone will lay their cards on the table."
