Politics and the black arts. Inseparable.
The investigation into the blackmail attempt against Teoman Sancar, a
Denizli parliamentarian, has been completed. Jail sentences of up to 9
years each have been requested for five suspects, one of them a
policeman, for "blackmail" and "violation of personal privacy".
Sancar was forced to resign from the CHP party (main opposition
party) because of the scandal. According to the related indictment,
Fatih Selamet (26) was an acquaintance of Sancar from some years
ago. Taking advantage of this acquaintance, Selamet made a blackmail
plan, telling his brother-in-law Bülent Acar, a policeman in Kuşadası,
that "we'll take a video and blackmail him."
Acar agreed to the plan and brought in friends Sadık Sivri and Fatih
Kıntaş as partners. In accordance with the plan, Selamet called
Sancar and invited him to a flat in Denizli "to discuss a matter." Once
Sancar accepted, Sadık Sivri and Fatih Kıntaş came from Kuşadası to
Denizli, entered the flat and put a camera inside the air conditioner in
a room. Then they began to wait in a van parked nearby.
In the indictment, it is stated that when Sancar got drunk and passed out
Selamat took some obscene videos (!). After a while, Sancar left the flat
and Selamet put the videos taken by the camera in the air conditioner on
a computer, erasing all but the obscene parts.
Subsequently, Fatih Karakoç, a new member of the blackmail group,
demanded money from Sancar, who balked. Thinking that the video
might be sold to someone, Sancar contacted the public prosecutor and
filed a complaint. The five suspects taken into custody and three of them
were jailed. Now they each face nine years in prison.
Kuşadası is on the Aegean coast, west of Denizli.
