“WE WANTED TO BE THE INTERVENTION TO GET THE BACKGROUND OF OUR TERM”

Birol Balaban, one of the company’s former captain pilots, said in a press release in front of Bakırköy Courthouse: Our request was to get our progress payments, but in the process these people flew without charge. As a result, we lost a brand. We have receivables, the employer has stated that he will constantly give them. We expected him to pay yesterday, but this promise was not fulfilled. We also wanted to be involved in the case to get the price of our sweat. For this reason, we came to petition but some of us could not petition due to corona virus measures. However, we decided to be a follower of this rightful case, “he said.
