Details in the investigation file revealed that during the 2024 local elections campaign, Böcek’s son Mustafa Gökhan Böcek allegedly demanded 25 million Turkish Liras regarding electoral activities from a businessperson named Y.Y at his office. When this amount was not met, it was alleged that an agreement was reached for an 8.5 million Lira payment for clothing services. Another detail in the file claimed that in February, Mustafa Gökhan Böcek purchased a house for 30 million Liras from a construction company in the name of his former wife Zeynep Kerimoğlu, and this amount was reportedly paid to the construction company in three installments by the individual Y.Y. Bank account transactions and receipts related to the payment were stated to be included in MASAK reports.
Mayor Muhittin Böcek and former daughter-in-law Zeynep Kerimoğlu completed their police statements. After their health checks, Böcek and Zeynep Kerimoğlu were sent to the courthouse. While Kerimoğlu was released under travel ban restrictions, Muhittin Böcek was arrested by the peace criminal judge he was presented to.
