Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
Fatma Betül Sayan Kaya, her husband İlyas Kaya and former Capital Markets Board (SPK) Chairman İbrahim Ömer Gönül completed roughly nine hours of testimony as suspects in a fund investigation led by the Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's Office. The three gave statements under suspect status rather than as witnesses, signaling the probe has narrowed onto specific individuals. The case centers on fund-related allegations, though the article does not specify the amounts involved or the funds under scrutiny. All three are now awaiting the prosecutor's referral letter (sevk yazısı), which will determine whether the matter advances to a criminal court or results in a different disposition. What to watch next is the content of that referral document, which should clarify the specific charges and whether an indictment follows.
