Tensions flared on the tv100 broadcast where these detentions were being discussed, and the debate over Berkay Gezgin ultimately led journalist Can Özçelik to leave the studio.

The debate between Ferhat Murat and Can Özçelik regarding the arrest of Berkay Gezgin escalated suddenly, forcing the program's moderator, Başak Şengül, to intervene.

However, as the argument between the two intensified, voices were raised in the studio, and Can Özçelik left the studio on the grounds that Ferhat Murat was targeting him.
