Tax inspector appointed by MASAK to investigate “black money” arrested on bribery charges
“Collagen thread treatment” using ball threads was performed.
According to details revealed about the operation, it was found that fake mastership certificates were issued in Ankara for 2,000 liras, and these certificates were sold to so-called franchisees for 20,000 liras. Again, it was found that most of these dealers did not register their documents in the system. Investigations revealed that commercial moisturizing creams using ball threads that had no special properties were printed with brand labels and sold as “collagen thread treatment,” “rejuvenating thread treatment,” etc.
Account transactions worth 1.5 billion liras detected
During the investigation, it was discovered that potential dealers were being asked to pay huge royalties, which were paid not through banks but through the transfer of movable and immovable property. The investigation also uncovered the transfer of 1.5 billion liras between companies controlled by Neslihan Güngen and İnanç Güngen.
The tax inspector accepted a bribe
Meanwhile, it was discovered that the tax inspector appointed by MASAK to investigate the couple made more than 30 calls to Neslim Güngen’s mobile phone, requesting an off-the-record meeting. When these calls were subjected to technical monitoring, the tax inspector also participated in the operation. The tax inspector was detained at the hotel where the couple was staying and taken to Istanbul.
