Bulgaria: Famous Media Boss Arrested in Turkey BGNES

The executive Director of the Doğan Holding Barbaros Muratoğlu has been arrested in Ankara on Thursday morning on suspicions of links with the organisation FETO of the Islamic cleric Fethullah Gulen, reported BGNES.

It is expected that the detainee will be escorted to Istanbul.

According to the official statement of the media group published on its website, Muratoğlu has been a member of the holding for 28 years, he has worked at different positions and has won the exclusive trust of the management, while the investigation against him is a surprise to everyone and there is no sufficient information for his arrest.

“Certain media circulated false information related to the investigation against Doğan Holding. We do not have links either with FETO, or with illegal activities. We consider the false publications to be an intentional campaign aimed at defaming and breaking our group.
