Today, which will be completed for 100 black days (from the arrest of Imamoglou), they have again tarnished justice with a business at dawn. Erdogan said five days ago that the research would extend to other cities. Are you the prosecutor handling secret folders, are you a judge? How do you know all this and use them for political purposes? You think that with such a business in Smyrna you will make it difficult for our struggle in Constantinople. From here we throw the glove. Wherever you business, in one place, in two parts, in ten parts, in a thousand places, we will resist a thousand places, we will resist a thousand times. “
