Ali Babacan Questions 'Ahbap' Investigation Delay: 'Why Did the Government Wait 3.5 Years?'

DEVA Party leader Ali Babacan has sharply questioned the government's delayed response to allegations surrounding the Ahbap organization, particularly in light of the recent investigation involving singer Haluk Levent.

Babacan focused his criticism on the timing of the government's actions. "If there are such large figures and such significant incidents, why have you not investigated them until now?" he asked, referring to the ongoing probe. He specifically highlighted the period following the earthquake, noting that three and a half years have passed since then, and questioned the lack of action during that time.

"Why did you not do anything during this period?" Babacan pressed, implying that the authorities should have acted much sooner if the alleged financial issues were indeed substantial. His remarks suggest a belief that the government's current investigation might be politically motivated or a response to public pressure rather than a proactive measure.
