Mustafa Sarıgül statement from CHP Spokesperson Müslim Sarı: Being a member of parliament does not bring freedom to commit crimes.

CHP Spokesperson Müslim Sarı made remarkable statements regarding the allegations against independent Erzincan Deputy Mustafa Sarıgül.

Müslim Sarı said, "It is a disgraceful situation. The allegations discussed, the issues, the speeches... We will see if this progresses with an immunity process. Being a member of parliament does not bring the freedom to commit crimes. Everyone should and can be tried. I see that these allegations have caused a wound in the conscience of the society. If such a situation comes into question, I think maybe an evaluation can be made regarding immunity." he said.

"WE ARE IGNORING ÖZGÜR ÖZEL"

CHP Spokesperson Sarı asked a journalist, "Is Mr. Özgür Özel a presidential candidate?" He gave the following answer to the question:

"The overwhelming majority of those involved in politics in the New Party said that Ekrem Bey should be the presidential candidate. During that period, I said in the Party Assembly, 'My candidate is CHP Chairman Özgür Özel'. CHP's Chairman is the natural presidential candidate. While all of our friends want İmamoğlu's candidacy so much, how politically ethical it is for them to look for another option is another discussion."

Sarı said, "Do you think that PM should be a presidential candidate regarding Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu?" "In order to continue this principle, we will say 'Every chairman is a natural presidential candidate', but the candidate must also want to be a presidential candidate. Mr. Chairman said that he will not be a presidential candidate. We will be looking for another candidate." he replied.

In response to a journalist's question about "deleting Özgür Özel period data and posts from the CHP website", Müslim Sarı said the following:

"The court said, 'This person has never been a chairman'. When the court decision finalizes, we will download the photos. Whether local elections will be affected or not is another discussion. Where the court ignores, we ignore Mr. Özgür Özel."
