ACCUSATION OF CRIMINAL ORGANIZATION MEMBERSHIP

Murat Özdemir was detained by teams from the Organized Crime Bureau at his villa in Acarkent, one of Istanbul's luxury neighborhoods. It is alleged that Özdemir was detained on charges of being a member of Selahattin Yılmaz's criminal organization. It is stated that Özdemir received instructions from the organization to "seize" organized industrial zones.
