According to the statement in the investigation file, Sevda Kurt claimed that after she met Haluk Levent, she was asked for a loan on various dates over time.

According to Kurt's narrative, Haluk Levent asked for a loan from him, stating that he had investments in Switzerland but was experiencing temporary financial difficulties. In his statement, Kurt said Haluk Levent told him, "I was chosen as the most reliable person in Türkiye. The person the whole country trusts must pay the debt he received." he claimed.

According to the statement in the file, Kurt claimed that he made various money transfers to Emrah Gödeliner's bank account on different dates in 2022 and that these transactions were made under the direction of Haluk Levent.
