Minister of Internal Affairs Efkan Ala admitted that the numbers on police helmets were erased during the Gezi Resistance.
Republican People’s Party (CHP) deputies Sezgin Tanrıkulu, Metin Lütfı Baydar, Mevlüt Dudu and Mahmut Tanal delivered a parliamentary question on whether the numbers on police helmets were erased or not during the Gezi Resistance.
Ala gave a collective response to all questions and said:
"All of the action force police receive numbered helmets. During those events, some of the numbers on police helmets were erased due to intense work schedule. We provided numbers to all of the erased helmets. We will immediately start the legal and administrative process on the disobedient personnel who act against orders, instructions and regulations.” (NV/ENÜ/BM)
