In line with the letters of the Governorship of Istanbul and the Provincial Directorate of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change, an inspection was carried out on the project belonging to İmamoğlu İnşaat in Beylikdüzü Marmara District. As a result of the examination, it was determined that the “sunshading” elements located on the ground, 1st and 2nd normal floors of A1, A2 and B blocks in the project were used for purposes other than their intended purpose.

40 MILLION TL FINE WAS IMPOSED

Upon detection, action was initiated within the scope of Article 42 of the Zoning Law No. 3194. A total of 40 million 390 thousand 479 lira and 83 kuruş administrative fine was imposed on İmamoğlu İnşaat.

1 MONTH GIVEN FOR DEMOLITION

In the decision, it was emphasized that the violations should be eliminated or brought into compliance with the license within 1 month following the notification to the building owner. It was stated that if the necessary actions are not taken within this period, the demolition decision will be implemented.

THE SITE SUPERVISOR WAS ALSO PUNISHED

It was also included in the decision that some additional fines will not be collected if the legislation is brought into compliance. Within the scope of the same file, an administrative fine was also imposed on the construction site manager, who was considered to have failed to fulfill his obligations. The decision became final with the signature of the municipal council members.

Özgür Özel, who remains silent about allegations of bribery and corruption in many Metropolitan Municipalities, especially Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality, frequently threatens members of the judiciary and journalists. Özgür Özel recently included Youtuber Arif Kocabıyık, who funded his party.

CONVICTED FOR CRIMES AGAINST ATATURK

Arif Kocabıyık, who has a record of 43 different crimes such as crimes against Atatürk, insulting the President, inciting the public to hatred and hostility, insult and threats, was given a badge by Özgür Özel at the CHP Headquarters. Kocabıyık shared the images of Özgür Özel wearing a badge with the message: “With our Chairman Mr. Özgür Özel wearing my badge, I continue on my way under the umbrella of the Republican People’s Party.”

“ÖZGÜR ÖZEL’S HOPE WAS BANKAMATIC ARIF”

After the sharing, reactions came along with it. Many people, including CHP members, reacted to Özgür Özel’s move. Users who shared photos of the badge ceremony on social media said, “The search for new blood in the CHP has yielded results. Özgür Özel’s hope was ATM Arif. It turns out that Özgür Özel’s understanding of “merit” is to complete the TCK catalogue. Congratulations to Özgür Özel, not the staff but the “crime archive” has been transferred, as you can see, the “change” continues at full speed. They “changed” it so much that we cannot recognize our 103-year-old plane tree. There is no value or morality left. “superiority” comments were made.

In the words of the late Sezai Karakoç, these roads belong to Üveys-i Karani, Cüneyd-i Bağdadi, Beyazıd-ı Bestami, Hallacı Mansur, Abdülkadir Geylani, Ahmed Rıfai, Muhyiddin-i Arabi, Mevlana Celaleddin-i Rumi, Bahaeddin Nakşibendi, İmam-ı It is the path of Rabbani, Halid-i Baghdadi, Hacı Bektaş-ı Veli, Akşemseddin Aziz Mahmud Hüdayi, all these great people, their followers and many other great people. These roads eventually converge on the main road and become a single road. That path is the path of the imams, the companions, the prophets and the last prophet. That path is the path of the Quran, the path of truth, the path of Islam, the civilization of truth. That way is the way of Allah.

Yes, today, I once again commemorate all our elders who devoted themselves to this path throughout the centuries and drew new horizons for generations with their works, ideas, personalities and the students they trained. May God Almighty rest their souls in peace and grant them peace. I pray that God will make us all graduates, civil servants and graduates to follow in their footsteps and follow the straight path.

My dear brothers and sisters, esteemed guests; Our Prophet, the Messenger of pre-eternities and eternities, said in one of his hadiths: ‘Raise your children in three matters: Love of the Prophet, love of the Ahl al-Bayt and recitation of the Quran.’ Because the memorizers of the Quran will be under the shadow of the Throne along with the prophets and the friends of Allah who have attained salvation on the Day of Judgment when there will be no shadow.

In another hadith, they gave the following good news: ‘Anyone who always reads the Quran will be told: Read and rise. Read with tertiles here, just as you read with tertiles in the world. Surely, your level is at the end of the verse you read.’ Today, I once again congratulate you, my dear brothers and sisters, who read the Holy Quran, learn it, teach it, memorize it, and of course recite it with a beautiful voice and an effective harmony.

I have to bring this fact to your attention here. As Muslims, we are going through a difficult and painful period. Unfortunately, wherever we turn our heads, from Palestine to Lebanon, from the Gulf to Sudan, from Somalia to Yemen, we encounter tears. In these testing days when the so-called civilized world plays the three monkeys, babies in swaddles and defenseless civilians are brutally murdered. Today, we all see the true faces of those who have been arrogantly talking about justice, equality, human rights and freedoms at every opportunity they get for years.

I would like to state this clearly: We have no other way to pass this test than to hold tightly to the Quran, the Sunnah, and the rope of Allah. In order to pass this test, we have no choice but to believe, trust and support each other. As Muslims, we are obliged to put aside discord, discord and hostility, and unnecessary and untimely debates and come together as one. ‘Do not fall for each other, or you will become lax and lose your strength.’ We have to apply the warning in this verse to every phase of our lives.

‘Do not lose interest and care for each other. Don’t turn your back on each other. Don’t hold grudges against each other. Do not envy each other. ‘O servants of Allah, be brothers!’ We are obliged to take this advice of our guide and leader, Hatemü’l Enbiya, as our strongest guide. Otherwise, it will not be possible – God forbid – for us to overcome these troubles, eliminate the obstacles that come our way, and put an end to these sufferings.

We will be patient, we will not lose hope. We will be tightly interlocked like bricks of a wall. I hope we will build a peaceful future together, where there is no oppression and oppressors. I pray that God will help us. With these thoughts, I hope that the 11th International Memorization and Reading the Holy Quran Beautiful Competition will be beneficial once again, I congratulate my brothers who won the prize, I thank you, my dear brothers and sisters, who participated in our program, I greet you with love and respect, and I entrust you to God. Thank you, live long, stay healthy.

The spiral of corruption in Istanbul Şile Municipality moved to a new dimension after the judicial dimension, with “nepotism” and “unfair gain” documents, and Mayor Özgür Kabadayı was arrested and sent to prison in April on charges of “bribery”, “extortion” and “tender rigging”. According to the reports reflected in the discussions of the Parliamentary Audit Commission, there was an “overtime” profiteering in Şile Municipality.

86 THOUSAND SALARY 180 THOUSAND TL ADDITIONAL PAYMENT

Following the dismissal of Özgür Kabadayı, it was determined that Onur Tarhan, the son-in-law of Deputy Mayor Sacit Terzi, received overtime wages as well as his high salary, leaving behind all the other 766 personnel in the municipality throughout 2025. According to the audit reports, it was learned that Onur Tarhan’s monthly net salary was 86 thousand TL, but he was shown to have completed the entire 270-hour working period, which is the legal upper limit in public institutions, and received an overtime fee of 180 thousand TL in addition to his salary.

EXACT INVESTIGATION HAS BEEN STARTED

After the spiral of corruption in Istanbul Şile Municipality took a judicial dimension, an ex officio investigation was launched by the Şile Chief Public Prosecutor’s Office for the crimes of “Forgery of Official Documents”, “Qualified Fraud” and “Abuse of Office”.

Esra Albayrak, Chairman of the Board of NUN Education and Culture Foundation, wrote an article for The Jakarta Post newspaper. Referring to the Bandung Conference held in Indonesia in April 1955, Albayrak reminded that the conference participant countries gathered to “determine their own agenda”.

Albayrak pointed out that Western powers were not invited to the conference in question and emphasized that this was a conscious choice.

Albayrak made the assessment that Bandung declared that the majority of humanity could chart its own path in a world where meetings without the West were “considered unimportant” and noted that this was achieved with the Non-Aligned Movement that emerged.

Albayrak stated that the Non-Aligned Movement is not just a diplomatic stance; He stated that it is an outlet that declares that the world is wider than the frameworks imposed on it.

Noting that this claim is still not complete, Albayrak said, “What the Bandung generation faced was not only political dependency; it was also a situation that was harder to name and therefore harder to eliminate: addiction to ways of knowing.” he said.

Albayrak evaluated what sociologist Syed Hussein Alatas called this “captive mind” and described it as an intellectual who examines his own society only with categories produced externally and accepts borrowed tools as universal truths.

Underlining that the captive mind is not aware of its captivity, Albayrak said, “The intellectual legacy of colonialism was designed to provide exactly this.” made his assessment.

Albayrak noted that the Bandung Conference was a turning point in the struggle for political independence and pointed out the difficulties in achieving independence of thought, knowledge and imagination.

“COLONIALISM DID NOT END, IT CHANGED ITS FORM”

“In this sense, colonialism did not end in the 1960s; it changed form.” Albayrak said:

“Financial systems, educational models and legal frameworks have been restructured to make the colonial order seem natural and inevitable. What we call the ‘post-colonial world’ today is actually a continuation of colonialism operating under a new language and maintaining an unbroken continuity.”
