According to Sözcü, the roughly 1 million lira vehicle used by Denizli Provincial Mufti Abdullah Pamuklu was sold and replaced with a brand-new vehicle claimed to have a market value of about 5 million lira; the Din-Bir-Sen union criticized the purchase.
The Din-Bir-Sen union criticized the purchase, saying, 'The dignity of the Diyanet and the trust of the nation cannot be sacrificed to the passion for luxury cars'. The claim that the vehicle was bought with Diyanet Foundation donations is on the agenda.
