Star daily columnist Cem Küçük pointed CNN Türk speaker Nevşin Mengü as a target on TV show and claimed Mengü gave away his home address and identity card information while announcing a news:
“I will finish you off if you don’t apologize from me and if you don’t retreat and Turkey will witness it. You will see how private life is revealed to others. I will make you pay back. I will finish your media life off.”
Mengü replied via her twitter account:
“Look at him! He will finish my media life off… Come here bro, bring it on!”
Küçük threatened Ahmet Hakan before
Star daily columnist, Cem Küçük, had threatened Ahmet Hakan on September 9 from his column:
"Ahmet Hakan is schizophrenic and a Pro-PKK (Kurdistan Workers’ Party) thief. He thinks he lives in the old times. We can crush him like a worm if we want to. He is alive right now since we showed mercy for him.”
Küçük claimed his remarks were just “ironic” while he was giving testimony to the prosecution upon the complaint of Hakan.
On the other hand, Hakan addressed Küçük from his column at Hürriyet daily yesterday:
“Since you say you will crush me like a worm…then, stand behind your words. Man!”
Meanwhile, Hakan’s lawyer Aslı Kazan stated Cem Küçük intimidated Public Prosecutors and accused them of being terrorists. Lawyer Kazan commented the prosecutors must sue Küçük. (EA/BD)
