Lawyers from the Izmir Bar Association have pressed charges against convicted mobster Sedat Peker and important figures from Turkey’s ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP), daily Cumhuriyet reported on Monday.
In the complaint the bar association cited Turkish Interior Minister Süleyman Soylu, former police chief and interior minister Mehmet Ağar, his son and current AKP deputy Tolga Ağar, and Erkan Yıldırım, son of former prime minister and AKP heavyweight Binali Yıldırım.
“Between May 2 and 23, 2021, Sedat Peker has made statements on his YouTube channel that have shaken the country, and his posts have climbed to top spots on the public’s agenda,” the Izmir bar said. “Said person’s talks contain important confessions on relations between the state and the mafia. It is a requirement of the state of law to take these confessions seriously and have an independent judiciary assess the claims.”
