New Thodex case: Paritex
Another scandal emerged after the Thodex hit. Trading on Paritex, one of the local cryptocurrency exchanges, has been suspended. It is stated that Paritex has not been accessed since 13 September. There are allegations that the platform stopped operations and received 50 million lira of user funds. Meanwhile, it was revealed that hundreds of aggrieved investors filed a criminal complaint with the prosecutor’s office.
Concerns that Paritex CEO Özgür Serkan Uslu will flee abroad are also expressed on social media platforms. Aggrieved investors demand that MASAK take action to prevent the repetition of what happened in the Thodex hit.
It is stated that Ozgur Serkan Uslu, the owner and CEO of Paritex, is also behind the pyramid coin called MPAX Coin.. cryptocoin.com As we have also reported, 12,000 people were victimized in the fraud case against this coin. It is also stated that Uslu has 76 fraud files about him. In a statement to various media outlets, Uslu said that “the problem is caused by the software developer”. He claimed that they refunded users their money.
Thodex founder caught
As it is known, Faruk Fatih Özer, CEO of crypto money exchange Thodex, fled abroad with approximately 2 billion dollars. He was even wanted with a red notice for defrauding thousands of people. Thodex founder Faruk Fatih Özer was arrested in Vlora, Albania, last month. Özer is sentenced to 40,562 years in prison for 3 different crimes. The other day, a trial was held at the Elbasan Court of First Instance regarding the extradition of Fatih Özer to Turkey.
Court sources stated that the next session of the hearing will take place on October 21. The defense requested time to review the files. The court also decided to extend Özer’s detention. The detention period is expected to last until the end of the extradition proceedings. The Elbasan Chief Public Prosecutor’s Office demands that Özer be extradited to Turkey. Wanted with a red notice, Özer was caught in Albania on 30 August.
On September 2, the Elbasan Court of First Instance decided to continue the detention of Özer. This decision went up to appeal on 14 September. A week later, the Dıraç Court of Appeal upheld Özer’s detention. Interior Minister Süleyman Soylu announced that Özer would be extradited to Turkey after the court process. Minister of Justice Bozdağ talked about the extradition of Özer in a phone call with the Minister of Justice of Albania.
