Ankara State Security Court General Attorney Cevdet Volkan decided that "there is no reason for an inquiry" for the former leader of the banned Welfare Necmettin Erbakan according to the 83/1st Article of the Constitution and stated that "the irresponsibility is not limited only to the Parliament's General Board meetings, but a new legal regulation will be brought which will also include the speeches in the party group meetings as well."
Mr. Volkan has finished his inquiry opened against Necmettin Erbakan since he provoked the public by discriminating class, race, religion and region in the Welfare group meeting on 13th April 1994 in which he stated that "The Welfare will come to power. Whether the transition period will be bloody or not. The 60 million will decide this."
Mr. Volkan stated the following in his decision:
"No inquiry can be opened or a public suit can be brought against any deputy because of his/her speeches or views declared in the Parliament meetings even if these may be considered crime under normal circumstances. Also there is no exceptionary article that bids the irresponsibility of legislation not to be applied to the crimes stated in the 14th Article of the Constitution as it is stated in the 83/2nd article which guaranties the deputy immunity."
