Özeller had previously reacted to the threats and insults he received after criticizing MHP Chairman Devlet Bahçeli, stating, "Politicians are not deities. They are human and can be criticized. We know the situation of those who criticize the President. But isn't it quite thought-provoking that only those who criticize Mr. Bahçeli are threatened with death? I stand by my words.
