Ümit Özdağ reacted to the court date set for June 11, 2025. In a statement from Marmara Prison, he emphasized that justice is not being served.

In his social media post, Özdağ stated, "It is not justice to keep a political party leader in prison for 2.5 months." He highlighted the unlawfulness of this situation.

The Victory Party criticized the continuation of Özdağ's detention, calling it a dark stain on Turkish legal history. The party's statement emphasized that justice is being trampled upon.

Özdağ stated that he was brought to court without his lawyer, calling this unlawful. He declared, "Justice is the foundation of the state," asserting that the judiciary has been politicized.

Özdağ pointed out that his trial was kept secret before a major public meeting and that this is part of a systematic intimidation operation. He stressed that the demands for justice from the Turkish people should not be ignored.
