The Istanbul court has begun hearings in a “false testimony” case in which actors Halit Ergenç and Rıza Kocaoğlu are defendants: their statements were previously made as witnesses in an investigation against manager Ayşe Barım, suspected of involvement in organizing the Gezi Park protests. At today’s hearing, Ergenç stated that his monthly income is 300,000 Turkish lira and declared his innocence: “I did not commit a crime because I did not lie. Our march in Gezi Park was solely to prevent trees from being cut down; it was never a protest against the state or government.” The case has been postponed until May 23.
