Investigation had been launched: Unexpected move from the targeted Manifest group

The Manifest group, which has recently become popular among young people, faced accusations of "lewd acts" and "exhibitionism" following their concert at Küçükçiftlik Park in Maçka, Istanbul. The Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's Office announced that it had launched an ex officio investigation into these accusations.

The group members' stage performances and outfits became the target of criticism on social media. Among these criticisms, the harsh words of presidential advisor Oktay Saral drew attention. In a statement he made on social media, Saral said, "These immoral, indecent, shameless, demon-looking creatures called the Manifest group must be dealt with in such a way that they can never perform this exhibitionism again."

Following the investigation, group members Sueda Uluca, Hilal Yelekçi, Lidya Pınar, Zeynep Sude Oktay, Mina Solak, and Esin Bahat deactivated their X (formerly Twitter) accounts. When users try to tag these accounts, they encounter the warning "This account does not exist."
