The written statement followed reports, commentary and social-media posts that had circulated in recent hours. IC Holding said IC İçtaş, its affiliated companies and the Çeçen family have no direct or indirect commercial, financial or legal relationship—past or present—with the speculative funds mentioned in recent allegations or with related people, companies or entities.
The statement also rejected claims that restrictions had been placed on the assets of IC İçtaş, its affiliates or the Çeçen family. The company called those reports unfounded and said it rejects attempts to associate its name with allegations and speculation in which it says it has no involvement.
IC Holding said it is monitoring material it considers false and potentially damaging to the company’s and family’s business reputation. It said it would promptly pursue available legal and criminal remedies, including requests for correction and compensation, against those responsible for originating, publishing or knowingly spreading false claims. The company urged the public not to rely on unverified speculative posts. These are the company’s assertions; the statement does not independently establish the underlying allegations.
