Investigation into Ayşe Ateş: Prosecutor's office takes action following her statements at the Sinan Ateş trial

An investigation has been launched into Ayşe Ateş, the wife of former Ülkü Ocakları President Sinan Ateş, who was murdered in Ankara.

In the investigation initiated upon a 'complaint' regarding Ayşe Ateş's statements during the hearing, the Ankara Chief Public Prosecutor's Office requested the transcripts from the court.

The letter sent by the prosecutor's office to the 32nd High Criminal Court is as follows:

“It is requested that the portion of the hearing transcript containing the statements made by Ayşe Ateş, against whom a complaint has been filed, in the case file numbered 2024/127 currently being heard in your court, and a copy of the verdict if one has been rendered in the aforementioned case file, be sent to our Chief Public Prosecutor's Office with the utmost urgency.”

AYŞE ATEŞ HAD NAMED 4 INDIVIDUALS DURING THE HEARING

During the hearing regarding the murder of Sinan Ateş, Ayşe Ateş had named four MHP members, stating, 'If I die, these should not go to the grave with me.'

Ayşe Ateş had said the following:

"I am telling these for the first time now because I was afraid they would kill me too. If I don't say these here today, I won't be able to say them again because I don't know what will happen to me. If I die, these should not go to the grave with me. Sinan Ateş said exactly this: 'Ayşe; Ulvi İzzet Yönter and Semih Yalçın gave instructions to Olcay Kılavuz and Ahmet Yiğit Yıldırım, and they are going door to door looking for a hitman.'"

AYŞE ATEŞ NAMED NAMES

Ayşe Ateş, in a statement she made on social media regarding the investigation in question, said the following:

"Individuals named İzzet Ulvi and Semih have filed a criminal complaint against me on the grounds that I slandered them. It seems I will have to go and give a statement. However, the statements we gave at the hearing in our capacity as Sinan Ateş's family should have been taken into account by the court panel, and the individuals who should have been giving statements and clearing their names were İzzet Ulvi and Semih. I guess that's how the system works for them...
