During the hearing, a significant development occurred when the lawyer for Murat Gülibrahimoğlu, a fugitive defendant, presented a compelling argument that a document circulating on social media, purporting to show his client's willingness to become an informant, is a fabrication. The lawyer vehemently asserted that the document was prepared without his client's knowledge and that even his signature was forged. He has formally requested the court to dismiss this "pirate petition" from the case file, emphasizing the need for procedural integrity.

Furthermore, the defense attorney addressed the accusations leveled against Gülibrahimoğlu, detailing his business relationship with the IBB, which reportedly began in 2015 and was conducted in full compliance with regulations. The lawyer also clarified that operations at the Cebeci Maden Sahası were carried out under the strict supervision and records of relevant government ministries and local authorities. The revelation of the alleged fake document and the subsequent legal challenges underscore the complexities and contentious nature of this high-profile trial.
