It was reported in the press that Mustafa Tanrıverdi, the manager of the Makine Kimya Endüstrisi Corporation Kırıkkale Weapons Factory, was caught red-handed and arrested while trying to sell the National Infantry Rifle project file.

We announce to the public opinion that the aforementioned director has no affinity or contact with the executives of our Institution, except for the similarity of his surname, and we hope that such espionage crimes committed by those who have to protect the national projects, one of the most important steps taken towards the independence of our country, at the cost of their lives, will be punished in the most severe way.
