Muhammad Bojuk, former mayor of Antalya Metropolitan Municipality, has filed a rights restoration request based on the "effective remorse" mechanism before judicial authorities.
Bojuk was removed from his position and arrested under an investigation related to municipal corruption and bribery. The move may allow him to reduce his sentence if he provides valuable information to investigators.
Muhittin Böcek, former mayor of Antalya who is in custody on bribery and corruption charges, has filed a formal request to benefit from the Turkish effective remorse mechanism, which allows defendants to reduce their sentences in exchange for providing valuable information to investigators.
The case involves major municipal operations and the possibility of uncovering wider details about corrupt practices in the administration of a major tourist city, which may affect municipal projects and government contracts under investigation. If Böcek provides reliable information, wider corruption networks affecting the public sector and investments in Antalya could be exposed.
