Testimony of Fatih Eke, detained in the Ahbap investigation, revealed: 'My accounts were blocked'

The police testimony of businessman Fatih Eke, who was detained alongside Oğuzhan Uğur as part of the third wave of operations in the investigation into the Ahbap Association, has been revealed.

In his testimony, Eke rejected the accusations, stating that he did not wish to benefit from effective remorse provisions. It was reported that Eke said, "I do not want to benefit from effective remorse provisions. Because I have not committed any crime."

In his statement, Eke explained that he had a commercial relationship with Haluk Levent through the crypto ecosystem and company transfer, stating that he sold his own ecosystem called "Nigella Chain" to Levent at the beginning of 2025, and that Levent later changed the coin name to "HLK".

CLAIMS IN EKE'S TESTIMONY

Eke claimed that the sale price was set at 7 million dollars, that Levent gave him checks worth approximately 3 million dollars, but that he could not collect all of the checks. He explained that a portion of the remaining amount was sent in cash and to his account, while another part was offset due to a school project and technical debts.

Stating that Haluk Levent wanted a school called "Nigella Surf Center" to be built in Hatay Samandağ for the Ahbap Association, Eke alleged that 1.5 million dollars were deducted from the sale account for this project, but that the project remained idle.

Touching upon the 72 million lira money traffic involving Yeliz Kaya, which came to light during the investigation, Eke argued that these money movements stemmed from his commercial relationship with Haluk Levent. Eke stated that he sent the money leaving his account because Levent was the advertising face of his company.

Responding to questions regarding check messages found during the phone examination, Eke said that the checks in question were related to the transfer of the Nigella Chain brand. Eke claimed that he filed a lawsuit regarding this matter and that Levent received a sentence.

Stating that there were liens and blocks on his own accounts, Eke claimed that this was due to tax debts and enforcement processes he experienced because he could not receive payment from Haluk Levent. For this reason, he said he used his sister Emine Eke's account for a while.

At the end of his testimony, Eke argued that he had no connection with the Ahbap Association and said, "I am innocent and I am a victim."
