MP Gökçek stated, "I would like to clarify a matter regarding the news reports claiming that my father, İbrahim Melih Gökçek, was chewing gum while going to the courthouse to give a statement, and that this constituted a sign of disrespect.

As is known, he is a diabetic.

Due to his condition, he occasionally uses gum and chewable tablets to alleviate the dry mouth he experiences. This is the sole reason for the situation seen in the footage.

Furthermore, it is already impossible for such a situation to occur while he is giving his statement to our esteemed prosecutor.

I feel the need to make this statement in order to inform the public correctly," he said.
