"Svakog dana sve više gubim nadu," požalio se on, rekavši da tužioci prenapuhuju aferu Ergenekon, te je neuspješno vezuju za skandal oko Susurluka iz 1996, koji je proizašao iz automobilske nezgode u kojoj su poginuli jedan međunarodno traženi kriminalac i jedan policajac visokog ranga.
"I lose more and more hope with each day," he complained, saying prosecutors are blowing the Ergenekon affair out of proportion as well as unsuccessfully tying it to the 1996 Susurluk scandal, which arose from a car accident that killed an internationally pursued criminal and a high-ranking police official.
