The former writer of the newspaper Zaman Mümtazer Türköne, who was in prison due to his membership in an armed terrorist organization, was subdued. MHP leader Devlet Bahçeli had asked Türköne to be tried again.

Mümtazer Türköne, arrested after the coup attempt on July 15, 2016 and has been in prison for 4 years. He decided to release him by reversing the 10-year prison sentence that had been imposed on him for being a member of FETÖ.
His attorney spoke to Halk TV.
Figen Çalıkuşu, Mümtazer Türköne’s lawyer, spoke to Halk TV. To our question whether Bahçeli’s statement ‘should be tried again’ and his approach had an effect on the decision, Çalıkuşu replied: “What matters is the rule of law. Making different assessments would contradict my legal identity.”
Çalıkuşu’s explanations are as follows:
Türköne’s file appeared to be under review in the Supreme Court last week. This stage was before the decision. Once the investigation is over, he enters the delegation and the decision is made. Then the file is complete. He himself got out of jail. They are currently taking him home. Your family is concerned that you have a health problem. I met him in prison last week, he was very healthy. The Supreme Court made a decision on the file and he was released. His sentence was 10.5 years. Since terrorist offenses were excluded from the new enforcement regulations, he could not benefit from those regulations anyway. Bedtime does not cover the execution.
What did Bahçeli say?
MHP leader Devlet Bahçeli made a statement on his Twitter account, demanding a new trial for former newspaper columnist Zaman Mümtazer Türköne. Who is Mümtazer Türköne, why was he sentenced to prison?
Bahçeli’s tweets were as follows:
– Some names that were in contact and in contact with FETÖ over time and in time, were sometimes owned and endorsed by CHP and sometimes by different circles. These individuals, whose identity is clearly known to our nation, have been portrayed as victims whose rights have been violated.
– The latest violation of the terrorist Demirtaş, and the compensation from the Turkish state of 50,000 Turkish lira, legitimately hurt their conscience. Justice is not laundering crime, not exonerating the guilty, but doing exactly what the rights and the law require.
– Today is the 41st anniversary of the martyrdom of our martyr Ülkücü Mustafa Türköne. He died on June 23, 1979 at the age of 21. His brother Mümtaz’er Türköne is in prison. I have known Mümtaz’er Türköne since my student days. He had many articles and statements against him.
