the saga has ended (?) click here for access to two
previous TNT reports about this soap opera.
"Warren Buffet ain't got nothin' on me."
Matild Manukyan, a brothel madam with outsized wealth, set records
for her tax payments and owned 486 properties and 220 taxi licenses.
When Manukyan died in 2001, her only son Kerope Çilinger, was the
sole heir.
Çilinger suffered from psychological problems and when his daughter
Dora Çilingir found him nearly dead in a hotel room, she had him
admitted to a hospital on 16 January 2018. Dora hanım filed a suit to
become caretaker of her father's fortune. However (!), on 26 June 2019,
the 80-year-old Çilingir escaped from the hospital and married Neslihan
Karaman, 40 years his junior, that same day.
The sudden May-December marriage raised eyebrows.
The marriage prompted Dora hanım and her sisters Linda and İlda
Çilingir to challenge the validity of the betrothal in court but Çilingir
died on 5 August 2020. Yesterday, an Istanbul court annulled the
marriage and found for Dora hanım. As a result, Kerope Çilingir's
enormous fortune passed to his three daughters.
Herewith the $3B fortune:
--five 5-star hotels in Antalya, Alanya and Balıkesir;
--a 5-star hotel in Cyprus;
--two factories in Istanbul;
--two mansions on Kınalıada and Büyükada in Istanbul;
--500 flats and 70 'han' (commercial buildings) in Istanbul;
--hundreds of flats and plots of land in Yalova;
--tens of buildings and plots of land in Muğla, Kocaeli, Erzurum and
Adana;
--150 million Euros in a bank in France;
--220 taxi licenses;
--bank accounts, shares and foreign exchange.
Dora hanım and dad in happier times.
