SEXUAL ALLEGATIONS IN THE CASE FILE ARE COMPLETELY BASELESS

The women who claim to have been sexually assaulted, were in truth, never assaulted or abused. However, THEY WERE FORCED TO MAKE THESE FALSE STATEMENTS AND BASELESS ALLEGATIONS, in some cases, due to an intense intimidation campaign where they were threatened, and in other cases due to those ladies’ attempts to escape the harsh conditions of the prison they were held in. There are countless number of records providing evidence in demonstrating this plain truth.

THESE YOUNG LADIES, most of whom were our friends for many years, HAVE BEEN SYSTEMATICALLY TERRORIZED WITH THREATS BEFORE AND AFTER THE JULY 11 OPERATION BY CERTAIN CIRCLES THAT ARE HOSTILE TO OUR COMMUNITY. As a result, they felt forced to be a part of this elaborate and comprehensive conspiracy built of lies and slanders. 

These hostile circles, for their own interests, caused public humiliation of these young ladies. As a matter of fact, they really don’t even care about them, and these poor women who are scared and constantly intimidated, feel desperate and helpless in the face of this ongoing horrible campaign of intimidation and terrorization.

WE ARE AWARE OF THE PLOTS WHERE THESE INNOCENT AND HELPLESS PEOPLE ARE USED AS A MEANS TO ENDS. And we will never allow these young ladies, whom we have known for years and have no doubt about their good characters and integrity, to be insulted or humiliated like this.

It is clear that the young ladies who appear to be complainants in the indictment, were instructed to sign documents that were prepared on their behalf with allegations. Countless number of evidences prove without a doubt that their statements are pure imagination and there had been no sexual abuse or assault whatsoever. 

Some of these facts are listed below:

1– The so-called Sexual Assault Allegations in the Case File are Baseless because; 

• The physical and mental examinations carried out by the 6^th Board of Specialization of the Forensic Science Department on the so-called wronged parties, clearly show that the so-called victims were not subjected to any sexual assault or abuse whatsoever. It was also established that in terms of mental health, they were fully capable of protecting themselves. IN OTHER WORDS, THE FORENSIC SCIENCE REPORTS ALONE REFUTE THE SO-CALLED SEXUAL ASSAULT ALLEGATIONS IN THE CASE FILE AND CLEARLY PROVE THAT THEY ARE NOTHING OTHER THAN ATTEMPTS AT SLANDER. 
• None of the so-called victims of sexual assault WENT TO THE POLICE OR OTHER AUTHORITIES TO LODGE COMPLAINTS after the imaginary events they claim to have taken place. This is because in reality nothing has happened that would require them to file a complaint to the authorities. 
• None of the so-called victims went to the hospital after the imaginary assaults that they claim happened and nor did they RECEIVED A HEALTH REPORT from independent doctors to substantiate and corroborate their statements. This is because none of them actually experienced a sexual assault or abuse. 
• None of the so-called victims have any factual concrete evidence or proof to verify their claims, like a piece of clothing with DNA traces on it, which would be readily available in the event of a real sexual assault. 
• There are no witnesses to the alleged sexual assault allegations. According to accepted decisions of the Supreme Court and decrees issued in similar cases, THE ABSENCE OF FACTUAL EVIDENCE, WITNESS, OR A HEALTH REPORT IN FAVOR OF THE VICTIM, is considered a strong indication that the allegations are FALSE.
• All the so-called victims claim that the so-called sexual attacks took place years ago. According to accepted Supreme Court decisions and decrees issued in similar cases, it is said that “VICTIM LODGING A COMPLAINT YEARS AFTER THE ALLEGED INCIDENT, SHOWS THAT THE ALLEGATIONS ARE FALSE”.
• For two years, the Prosecutor’s Office and the Police Force wiretapped and used technical surveillance to monitor every move of the TBAV community up until the day of the police operation. During that time NOT A SINGLE PIECE OF EVIDENCE WAS COLLECTED OR DOCUMENTED FOR CRIMINAL ACTIVITY NOR WAS A CASE OF SEXUAL ASSAULT EVER OBSERVED. Clearly, if there was even a slightest indication of a rape taking place during this intense surveillance, the police would have immediately taken action to save the person in question. However, nothing like that has ever happened.

2- All Of The Sexual Assault Allegations In The Case File Are Irrational And Baseless In Terms Of Logic, Conscience And Scientific Facts, Because;

• If the women that claim to have been sexually assaulted, really experienced such an incident, it would have been very easy for them substantiate their claim with actual proof. Even if we hypothetically accept the claim that they didn’t go to the police because they were scared, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN PERFECTLY NORMAL FOR THEM TO GO TO A HOSPITAL AFTERWARDS TO GET EXAMINED OR RECEIVE MEDICAL TREATMENT. The report from the hospital would have been sufficient evidence to corroborate their claims. Obviously, there is nothing to be scared about going to a hospital. But they didn’t because they were never attacked and thus they didn’t have a health problem that would get them a report like that. 
• The women who claim that they are victims of sexual assault are in fact very intelligent, well-educated and smart people. Their statements support that they have the mental capacity and are capable of creating scenarios and imaginary tales where they carefully mention the names of innocent people in such a way so that those people are incriminated in the process. Given their mental competence, it would be completely irrational and illogical to assume that these women would make decisions to NOT GO TO A HOSPITAL HAD THEY REALLY BEEN SUBJECTED TO A HORRIBLE ATTACK LIKE THAT.  The only reason that those women never went to hospital to get such reports is because those so-called rapes never took place.
• These women who claim to be victims of so-called sexual assault, are very modern, well-educated people who are very sensitive about their health and never hesitate to go to multiple doctors and hospitals for even the simplest gynecological conditions like vaginal discharge, cyst or acne. THEREFORE, IT IS ILLOGICAL AND IMPLAUSIBLE TO THINK THAT THESE SOCIALLY-ACTIVE WOMEN WHO ARE VERY SENSITIVE ABOUT THEIR HEALTH DID NOT GO TO A DOCTOR OR A HOSPITAL EVEN ONCE AFTER A HORRENDOUS PHYSICAL AND MENTAL TRAUMA LIKE THE SUPPOSED ORAL OR ANAL SEXUAL ATTACK THEY ALLEGEDLY EXPERIENCED. In truth, they never experienced such a trauma. 
• These women who claim to be sexual assault victims never went to the police, the prosecutor, or a hospital, and THEY NEVER TOLD THEIR FAMILIES, FRIENDS ABOUT THE SO-CALLED HORRENDOUS ATTACKS THEY SUPPOSEDLY EXPERIENCED MULTIPLE TIMES OVER THE COURSE OF YEARS AND NEVER ASKED FOR THEIR HELP. Needless to say, this is completely illogical and irrational. 
• All of the so-called victims in the case file repeatedly say that they deeply love the people they claim to have sexually assaulted them, and admit that they have seen them for months and sometimes for years and that they themselves insisted on keeping the relationships going. THEY WANTED TO MARRY THEM and some of the ladies even introduced them to their families. All these statements completely contradict any allegation of the existence of sexual attack or any kind of malicious intent.
• Most of the women that claim to be victims have happily attended events of our Foundation for years. During those events and in their other social interactions with our friends, they constantly took their photos with our friends, gladly announced their close ties and frequently shared those photos on their social media accounts. These so-called victims are clearly happy, content and comfortable in those photos. IT IS THEREFORE EXTREMELY STRANGE THAT THESE LADIES, WHO ENJOYED LOVING AND LONG-TERM FRIENDSHIPS WITH OUR FRIENDS, ALL AS A GROUP, SUDDENLY AND SIMULTANEOUSLY DECIDED TO LODGE SEXUAL ALLEGATIONS AGAINST OUR FRIENDS. THIS IS A CLEAR PROOF THAT THOSE LADIES WERE IN FACT BULLIED AND PRESSURED INTO MAKING SUCH BASELESS ALLEGATIONS BY CERTAIN OTHER PEOPLE IN COORDINATION.
• Sexual assault results in an overwhelming physical and emotional trauma, especially if it is a repeated incident. Therefore if a woman claims to have been repeatedly sexually assaulted, she should not want to ever face her attacker again, let alone spending time with them. IN OTHER WORDS, IF THOSE LADIES REALLY EXPERIENCED A TRAUMA LIKE THEY CLAIM, IT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE for them to spend time with our friends in social events, and pose happily in front of cameras and share them in their social media accounts. 
• Newspapers are full of reports of true victims of rape where the accounts show how the trauma devastates them and ruins their lives. In some cases, they fall into deep depression and even commit suicide.  However, the so-called rape victims in this case file, led completely normal and active lives during the time they claim they were being sexually attacked. Some of them continued their school, while others happily continued their normal activities like shopping, traveling, going to movies, gym etc. In fact, they led lives that were happier and more content than the average woman. Their situations are an aberration and atypical of the experience of true rape or sexual assault victims. 

These and other countless and inconsistencies and contradictions clearly prove that the so-called sexual assault allegations in the case file are completely untrue, have no legal basis or validity and are completely against logic, common sense, conscience and atypical of real victims when historically compared to actual cases. .

From the hundreds of allegations in the case, not one has the necessary, physical, technical and logical or factual evidence or proof, as we have explained above. 

ALMOST ALL OF THE STATEMENTS OF THE SO-CALLED SEXUAL ASSAULT VICTIMS SEEM TO HAVE BEEN COORDINATED AND COME FROM THE SAME SOURCE BECAUSE THEY USE SIMILAR LANGUAGE AND EXPRESSIONS. EACH OF THEM INCLUDE THE SAME CONTRADICTIONS, INCONSISTENCIES, ILLOGICAL EXPLANATIONS AND ALLEGATIONS. APPARENTLY, A COMMON LANGUAGE AND STATEMENT METHOD WERE EMPLOYED TO ENSURE THAT THE ALLEGED SCENARIOS WOULD BE INCRIMINATING FOR THE DEFENDANTS. 

Therefore, it is impossible to understand how such baseless, false allegations –of either hostile complainants or people who are benefitting from the active remorse law and therefore feel forced to make these statements- are presented in the indictment as if they are proof to crimes, when these statements are clearly a product of an elaborate and carefully planned plot. 

UNDER NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES, IT IS VERY EASY TO PROVE THAT A SEXUAL ASSAULT TOOK PLACE. THE FACT THAT NOT A SINGLE PIECE OF EVIDENCE CAN BE PRESENTED AS WE EXPLAINED ABOVE, CLEARLY SHOWS THAT THESE ALLEGATIONS ARE COMPLETELY FALSE, BASELESS LIES. 

FOR THESE REASONS, TORTURING INNOCENT PEOPLE BY KEEPING THEM IN PRISON FOR CLOSE TO TWO YEARS USING SUCH FALSE, BASELESS, UNFOUNDED, AND IMAGINARY STATEMENTS AS GROUNDS FOR DETENTION IS NOTHING BUT A MERE LEGAL DISASTER.
