Support from Gölbaşı Mayor to Tutdere: We know he is innocent

Adıyaman Mayor Abdurrahman Tutdere was detained within the scope of the investigation by the Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's Office.
Support for Tutdere came from İskender Yıldırım, the Mayor of Gölbaşı district of Adıyaman. Yıldırım made the following statement:
"We will say that we woke up with a shock this morning, but unfortunately the operations that have been carried out for the last 3-4 months have become very ordinary. All CHP mayors, all CHP politicians have an expectation like 'They can probably let us in tomorrow morning'. I would like to state this, especially regarding our President Abdurrahman Tutdere, both during his term as MP and during his term as mayor, I had tweeted in the morning, it caused a bit of a reaction, but we, let me say all the voters, all our party members, are guarantors of Abdurrahman Tutdere even before an investigation is launched, we know and believe that he is innocent. Because Mr. Tutdere, who has been in politics for nearly 7 years, will complete 8 years, has never been inclined to a single day of suspicion or gossip. During his term as MP and Mayor, he has been at home, so to speak, 'He has never seen a bed,' as they say, he is such a hardworking politician, a decent person, both his family and himself. We believe in everything. We are guarantors. At the end of the investigation, his innocence will definitely be revealed, I believe that. Our expectation is for all of these matters to be resolved.
"WE WILL SEE WHY THEY ARE DOING IT"
We are mayors in rural areas. I am the Mayor of Gölbaşı. Even in my district, when these operations are carried out one after another, both MHP and AK Party voters bring up the issue, namely, that only CHP municipalities in Türkiye are involved in corruption, even if that is the case. While there is no investigation into any political party member or mayor, or about mayors who were mayors in the past, all of the files of the newly elected CHP or other party mayors from the previous term are waiting at the prosecutor's office. Not even a cover is opened regarding any of these. Society now believes that even if there is a CHP mayor who is guilty in quotation marks, he is clean, honest and innocent in the eyes of the people, this society, the entire society. Therefore, we will see in time why they are making these processes like this, why they are doing it. We are here. We are with our mayor. We are waiting for our municipality. Let's wait for the results of an investigation and see what comes out. God willing, our country will be more prosperous and more affluent, because we were elected with the same political law and election law that other political parties and mayors of other political parties were elected with. What should we do, should we all give up? Should we give up on our country, what should we do? I don't know where this country will end up. We are waiting. We are all waiting."
