New video of Haluk Levent emerges: Sent to businesspeople in the US

Footage, reportedly recorded by artist Haluk Levent—who was arrested as part of the investigation into the Ahbap Association—to request donations from businesspeople abroad, has been released to the public.

According to a report by Show Haber Levent visited the office of businessman Hüseyin Başaran, who lost his daughter Mina in a plane crash in 2018, and explained that they were planning a dormitory project for orphaned female university students.

The report claims that under the agreement in question, the dormitory project was planned to be financed with funds provided from the US and Europe. It is alleged that a property worth 60 million was transferred to Levent's assistant, Yeliz Kaya, and that the properties were subsequently sold off in a short period.

The investigation file alleges that Levent later turned to wealthy businesspeople abroad and sent videos requesting donations, using both his own identity and the name of the Ahbap Association.

In the footage, it is reported that Levent used the following expressions: “We are sending our greetings to Ahbap America. We are expecting you for coffee in April regarding the dormitory project. The money is here, brother.” The report also stated that these were the expressions used.

The report further included allegations that Levent claimed he would turn the building in Göktürk, which he reportedly received from Hüseyin Başaran, into a dormitory; that he collected donations with the promise of a dormitory project in Hatay; and that he used Ahbap as a guarantor in his search for loans.
