Muhammed Yakut, who is wanted under a red notice due to the videos he published on social media, alleged that doctor Ender Saraç sexually abused his son, Mikail Saraç.

According to the allegation, Saraç's son Mikail Saraç, who is in the 8th grade, told his school counselor on December 5, 2023, that he had been abused.

The report prepared by the school counselor included the following statements:

“This morning, he shared information with his counselor regarding sexual abuse by his father. Following this, the incident was detailed during a meeting with the mother. M. Saraç stated that 2 weeks ago, his father touched his private area unnecessarily, constantly tried to put him in the bathroom, was constantly angry, rubbed his front private area under the pretext of applying cream, and made him watch sexually explicit films (at which point the child did not want to, and he did not turn it off when asked, and he stroked his shoulder).

The mother spoke with a lawyer, but the desired action was not taken. The mother met with another lawyer, whose lawyer participated in the meeting via phone and requested that we report it from the school to the district national education directorate. The decisions taken will be reported to the school principal along with this report, necessary action will be taken, and the mother will be informed about the process."
