Khaberni - Gendarmerie command teams in Istanbul carried out a broad security operation targeting a number of famous public figures as part of public prosecutor investigations around the use of narcotics and stimulants.
According to available information, those arrested include singer Alyana Tilki, digital content influencer Danla Bilic, actress Irem Sak, and Mumine Sena Yildiz, in raids that covered seven separate addresses in the districts of Sarıyer, Eyüp Sultan, Şişli, Üsküdar, Bakırköy, and Esenyurt.
The individuals who were not found include actress Melisa Dongel, singer Yusuf Guney, and Wojiehan Shensuzlu, as authorities continue their search for them.
Arrest warrants have also been issued for some individuals residing abroad, including Cima Subasi, Sevval Sahin, and Mert Vidinli.
During the search of Mumine Sena Yildiz’s house, five grams of cannabis and a special device for grinding it were seized, while legal sources stated that the raids were part of accusations related to the purchase, possession, or use of narcotics for personal use.
Alyana Tilki's lawyer confirmed that no incriminating elements were found during the search operations, indicating that official details will be announced later, respecting the principle of presumption of innocence until guilt is proven.
These measures follow a previous case involving the arrest of a digital influencer and a businessman, who was later released after benefiting from the provisions of "effective confession".
Arrest warrants have also been issued against Kasim Garipoglu and Burak Ates, accused of facilitating the acquisition and use of drugs.
The prosecution continues its investigations under the supervision of the Office for Special Investigations into Drug Crimes and Economic Crimes, in a move aimed at holding accountable all those proven to be involved in these networks.
