Interim decision in Seçil Erzan case: The continuation of detention was ruled!

The retrial of bank branch manager Seçil Erzan, who was sentenced to 102 years and 4 months in prison and a judicial fine of 753 thousand 880 liras for allegedly defrauding many people, including well-known football players Arda Turan, Fernando Muslera, Emre Belözoğlu and Selçuk İnan, of millions of liras, by saying that it was a reliable fund with high profits and that names such as Fatih Terim were also included in this fund, continued after the appeal was overturned. The detained defendant Seçil Erzan was connected to the hearing held by the Istanbul 29th High Criminal Court via the Audio and Video Information System (SEGBİS). Some detained defendants and party lawyers also attended the court.

"WILL I CONTINUE BEING A VICTIM SO THAT THE BANK WILL PAY THIS MONEY?"

Defendant Erzan, who made his defense at the hearing, said, "No one is telling the truth except the amount of receivables. They say we have receivables from the bank because they want to get interest from the bank. Am I going to continue to be a victim so that the participants can be found guilty of embezzlement and the bank pays this money? If I had been deceptive, I would have victimized my bank. I did not corrupt anyone's will, I did not take anyone's money into my pocket. What fraudster would defraud without taking a penny into his pocket? My mother needs me, I demand my release." he said.

HE WAS JUDGED TO CONTINUE DETENTION

Announcing its interim decision, the court decided to continue Erzan's detention. The committee ruled that the missing issues be corrected and postponed the hearing to 6 November.
