Financial Crimes Investigation Board (MASAK) published a report containing accusations of money laundering and tax evasion about Dilan Polat and her husband Engin Polat. The report highlights a complex web of financial transactions and questionable business dealings that could have far-reaching effects. Additionally, statements about cryptocurrency transactions also attract attention. Here are the details…
Dilan Polat report from MASAK
The focus of MASAK’s investigation is on businesses owned by Dilan Polat and several of her close relatives, indicating a potential connection that could facilitate money laundering. The report suggests that these companies may be managed by a single source, raising serious questions about their legitimacy. A striking revelation in the report, carried by mainstream media, points to a worrying pattern in which many of the suppliers supplying Polat’s businesses are closely linked to him. MASAK’s findings show that these suppliers, allegedly linked to Polat’s business, exhibit extremely suspicious characteristics.
Because they do not engage in real commercial activities, they do not file financial statements, they do not employ a workforce, they do not show any discernible banking activity, and they have a history of producing false documents. The gravity of the situation becomes even more apparent when you consider the staggering value of these suspicious transactions. According to the report, transactions strongly suspected of being fraudulent exceed 200 million Turkish liras. It is claimed that these funds were withdrawn in cash, significant amounts were deposited into personal accounts and Engin Polat’s company, and then used to purchase luxury vehicles and real estate. MASAK argues that these actions may constitute the crime of laundering proceeds from criminal activities.
MASAK: Cryptocurrency activities related to Polat and his wife should be suspended
MASAK took an important step and forwarded the findings to the prosecutor’s office and advocated the suspension of banking transactions, crypto assets and electronic money activities related to Dilan Polat and her husband. Beyond the allegations, the report provides a detailed overview of the companies under scrutiny. There are a total of 16 companies operating in various sectors such as beauty cosmetics, aesthetics and healthcare, engineering, construction and jewellery. In particular, Dilan Polat’s beauty center operates in 46 provinces. Their cosmetic products are sold both through their own websites and online trading platforms.
Another point that draws attention in the report is that more than 500 million lira of the money transfers made to the accounts of the companies in question consist of payments made from banks, POS transactions made through the payment institution IYZİCO and payments arising from internet sales. A significant part of these revenues comes from the credit card expenditures of online shoppers. The report also points out that following the cash withdrawal transactions made by people associated with the Polat family, money was deposited almost simultaneously into personal bank accounts, especially Engin Polat’s account, and into the corporate accounts of Milda Gayrimenkul Otomotiv Sanayi company, owned and managed by Engin Polat. The total amount of cash transactions in question is approximately 250 million lira.
