Turkish Islamist Gov't unveils new plans for HSYK dominance in case of election defeat.
Turkish Islamist Gov't unveils new plans for HSYK dominance in case of election defeat.(TZ).
AK Party parliamentary group deputy chairman Mahir Ünal recently said, on a televised program, that the government would consider the results illegitimate if candidates supported by the government lost in the HSYK elections.
Ünal argued, “Those who launched the Dec. 17 and 25 operations are now working to seize control of the judiciary through some alliances for the HSYK elections.” “If this group wins the [HSYK] elections, we will do whatever is necessary. We will declare the elections illegitimate,” he stated.
Ünal's remarks came as a serious blow to the AK Party's long-standing argument that what comes out of the ballot box is the final word in the country. The party, which has won several elections so far, often calls on its rivals to respect the results of the ballot box.
Main opposition Republican People's Party (CHP) deputy Atilla Kart harshly criticized Ünal for his remarks. The deputy said those who do not respect the ballot box and seek to interfere in the results are not democrats or representatives of the will of the people.
“The AK Party no longer needs to hide its anti-democratic and fascist character. The party has once again proven that its real concern is covering up claims of corruption and bribery, not efforts to promote democracy and the will of the people,” Kart stated. Hmmmm....the new 'Islamist' Supreme Board of Judges and Prosecutors will be probably called the 'Just US' board.Read the full story here.
