The murderers of Felicity (Saadet) Party ballot box witnesses, Hasan Aktaş and İlyas Aktaş, who were murdered by the relatives of the Justice and Development Party (AKP) candidate in Malatya Pütürge district in the 2019 local elections, were released despite receiving two life sentences. The instigator of the incident and the murderer, Hacı Sülük, got out of prison with the report of Forensic Medicine, returned to his village and started to wander around comfortably. The fact that the murderer Sülük was released from prison with gravel and asphalt spilled on the road of his house revealed how the murderer was protected.
AKTAŞ: “SHOULD BE SENT TO PRISON AGAIN”
İzzet Aktaş, brother of the murdered ballot box observers, said in a statement to our newspaper, "I am the brother of the Saadet Party ballot box observers, Hasan Aktaş, and cousin of İlyas Aktaş, who was murdered in the 2019 local elections. We have 5 orphans, the oldest of whom is 10 years old. Hacı Sülük is the person who carried out and instigated this event. Hacı Sülük, his son and 3 grandchildren, who murdered my brothers, received two life sentences each. Hacı Sülük, who was sentenced to two life sentences, was released from prison according to the report of Forensic Medicine and came to the village. He walks around the vineyard and the garden. This situation makes us very sad. This is not a fair situation. We're devastated that they're putting the murderer in our sights. We trusted the law, we trusted the justice, the law did its duty and sentenced, but this person was released. We are fully convinced that this person is in good health. He also says that I have nothing to do with those who come to visit him, I'm fine. This person should be sent to prison after a health check in another Forensic Medicine Institute.”
