Turkish mafia leader Sadat Baker publishes new video revealing involvement of one of Erdogan’s relatives in sending weapons to Al-Qaeda-linked terrorists in Syria

A new video published on Saturday by the Turkish mafia leader Sadat Baker has revealed the involvement of people close to President of the Turkish regime Recep Tayyib Erdogan as well as some members of his party in sending weapons to Al-Qaeda-linked Jabhat Al-Nusra terrorists in Syria

The video highlighted a conversation between Baker and one of Erdogan’s relatives who revealed that he was involved in sending weapons to Jabhat Al-Nusra in Syria.

“The phone call I made to Sardar Akshi, owner of Lazuli Oil Distribution Company, and brother-in-law of President Erdogan, was about the beating of a deputy at the police station and military supplies destined for Syria,” Bakr said in a tweet.

In the 13-minute video, the Turkish mafia boss received confirmation from Akshi regarding the latter’s knowledge and involvement in providing weapons to help extremists in Syria. He noted that Metin Kolonek, a deputy from Erdogan’s ruling party, participated in the plan in order to obtain permission to send the trucks to Syria.

 In a previous video he published last month, Baker said that Turkey had sent weapons to Al-Nusra terrorists in Syria through a private security company, set up by Erdogan’s chief military advisor Adnan Tanriverdi.

He also exposed in the same previous clip, details of cooperation between Turkish officials and “Al-Nusra Front”, referring to the decision to send military equipment to militants in Syria.

Bakr’s video revived the Turkish intelligence bodies’ truck scandal in 2015, when the Turkish intelligence service was caught transporting weapons to extremists in Syria under the guise of humanitarian aid to the population in the northwest of the country.

Bakr has published, over the past weeks, a series of video clips, in which he revealed many corruption files in which people close to Erdogan and his party were involved. The videos sparked a great controversy in the Turkish street amid calls by some Turks to open an investigation to find out the truth.
