Former minister Fatma Betül Sayan Kaya’s arrival at Istanbul’s courthouse attracted attention to her sunglasses as well as the fund investigation. Son Dakika and Haber İstiklal put their value at about $500. The figure is a reported estimate: no verified purchase document or confirmed brand and model was provided.

No statement on arrival

Kaya arrived with her husband İlyas Kaya. They proceeded to the prosecutor’s floor without answering reporters’ questions about financial transactions. Former capital markets regulator SPK chairman İbrahim Ömer Gönül was also among those summoned for further questioning.

According to Diken, the couple had previously given statements as suspects on 7 October. Discussion of Kaya’s sunglasses does not establish evidence or an outcome in the investigation.
