Abdullah Adır, the lawyer of Justice Minister Akın Gürlek, issued a written statement regarding TİP lawmaker Ahmet Şık’s claims about Gürlek. Adır argued that Şık had been asked to provide concrete information and documents to substantiate his claims, but that not a single document has been produced to date.
The statement alleged that Şık’s posts were groundless and did not reflect the truth, noting that a criminal complaint had been lodged against him and a lawsuit seeking compensation had been filed.
Adır noted that Şık’s statements would no longer be answered publicly, using the following words: “The slander and insults of this wretch, who cannot prove his claims, are not being dignified with a response by us. The necessary response will be given solely before the law.”
