“If you equate Bahceli with traitors, whom you serve like a dog, you will make the biggest mistake of your life,” continued the mobster.
Kilicdaroglu’s criticism of Erdogan
His threats followed Kilicdaroglu’s criticism of the Turkish president’s judicial reform announcements yesterday.
“Will they stop releasing the mafia bosses and drug traffickers?” Said the CHP leader, without naming anyone, but clearly referring to Erdogan.
Kelal Celik, a lawyer for Kilicdaroglu, said today that he had filed a lawsuit against Kakici, saying the latter’s threats could lead to an armed attack.
“In a place where there is no rule of law, the state itself can become a state of organized crime,” the opposition leader told reporters in Ankara today.
Shortly after, the mobster, in a second letter on Twitter, continued his insults against the CHP leader.

Many supporters of the Republican Party tweeted today expressing their solidarity with Kilicdaroglu using the hashtag #MafyaDuzeniniBitirecegiz (We will end the mafia regime).
Who is Kakiji?
Kakici was initially sentenced to life in prison in 2006 for ordering the murder of his ex-wife, according to Turkish media.
In 2018, MHP leader Bahceli visited the mob boss in his cell to demand his release.
In April, Kakici was released from an Ankara prison in a controversial amnesty.
