Suphi Üstündağ, the headman of Harmanalan District of Şanlıurfa’s Suruç district, shared a six-table photo from his social media account.
He wrote ‘servant’ on Meral Akşener’s photo, ‘gardener’ on Ahmet Davutoğlu’s photo, ‘cooker’ on Temel Karamollaoğlu’s photo, and ‘Şöfer’ on Ali Babacan’s photo. On the photo of CHP leader Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, he wrote deviant and insulting statements. Muhtar Üstündağ deleted his post after a while.
REACTION FROM CHP’S TANAL
CHP Istanbul Deputy Mahmut Tanal, who is from Şanlıurfa, quoting the post in question, “This is a joke, there is no compensation. If we want the palace administration to go, we must protect the election security. We must prevent SADAT-like structures and election fraud, especially in Şanlıurfa, in the East and in other provinces of the East. Claiming that the ballot box was stamped in favor of AKP on behalf of those who did not come to vote after 15.00 in Şanlıurfa district center and its villages on the election day, Tanal claimed that the security forces were also a bystander.
HE SIGNED TO THE MAYHTAR
While asking the muhtars not to be a part of the mistake, Tanal also tagged the posts of Suruç Harmanalan Neighborhood Headman Suphi Orhan, who shared a table of six and made a profile photo of his photo taken with AKP Şanlıurfa Deputy İbrahim Halil Yıldız on his social media account, and stated the following: Election security gains a special importance in villages where there are mukhtars, who cast a shadow on the title of ‘Public Official’, targeting opposition party leaders with despicable expressions.
This post of Tanal was responded to by AKP Şanlıurfa Deputy İbrahim Halil Yıldız, again via social media. Yıldız shared, “There is no one who steals votes in Eastern Anatolia and Southeastern Anatolia under pressure and threats, other than you, HDP and PKK. We know very well how you threaten villages and families at midnight on election week,” he claimed.
AKP Deputy Yıldız shared, “Why were you taken away from the emphasis on SADAT-like structuring, where there is no election security in Urfa?” Replying to the question, Tanal from the CHP said, “You first tell me how a fight broke out for one vote in Suruç in the 2018 election, and how members of the Şenyaşar Family, who were labeled as PKK members, were killed in the hospital.” Tanal, repeating once again the claim that there is no election security in Şanlıurfa, said, “We gave the example of the headman, who stood ‘beside’ AKP deputy İbrahim Halil Yıldız, acted like an AKP member, and insulted the opposition leaders in the 6 Tables. The relevant headman, who is a public official, deleted the insulting message after our post. He cannot exonerate himself by deleting such a message.”
