A Turkish court on Monday ordered the arrest of Muhammet Erisen, deputy chairman of the Banking Regulation and Supervision Agency (BDDK), and Murat Yonac, general manager of Adil Katilim Bank, as part of an investigation into capital markets transactions.
The fund probe is being conducted by the Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's Office's Terrorism Financing and Laundering Crimes Investigation Bureau.
After police procedures and health checks, Erisen and Yonac were brought to the Istanbul Courthouse in Caglayan, where they gave statements to prosecutors. They were referred to a criminal judgeship of peace with a request for arrest, which the court granted.
Three other detained suspects, Ruzy Mining Board Chairman Mehmed Nureddin Cevik, former Takasbank General Manager Yunus Arinci and Bulls Investment Board Chairman Kemal Akkaya, were expected to be referred to the courthouse later Monday.
Their police procedures were continuing.
Details of the alleged offenses have not been disclosed.
