01x03 - Episode 3

[bunniefuu]

[thunder crackling]

[tense electronic music playing]

- I have the g*n.

- Okay, hold on to it.

Come with us. Come.

- Where is it?

- Dude, stop asking me the same thing.

We'll be there soon enough, okay?

- Is this it?

- Yeah, keep going.

- She's in there. She's here.

- What?

[music stops]

[muffled screaming]

Don't worry. Everything's gonna be okay.

[sobbing quietly]

[Gökhan] As-salamu alaykum.

[quiet, dramatic music playing]

[Salih] She's still trembling, even now.

It's all right, honey.

See? Your mother is here.

My baby! Thank Allah, you're all right!

[gasping] My baby! Are you okay?

- As-salamu alaykum.

- Gökhan's here, so look presentable.

[man] Gökhan is here.

- May Allah bless you.

- It's all right.

- [woman] May He grant all your wishes.

- [Gökhan] No need for that. I did nothing.

I wasn't the one

who saved her, it was Allah.

[moody ethnic music playing]

If Allah wanted her to be saved, then

that means He must have a plan for her.

I'm just a messenger.

- I wish you well.

- Thank you.

Come on, applaud.

[woman] Thank you.

Thank you.

[people chattering]

[moody ethnic music continues]

SEMAVİ: ALLAH ALMIGHTY SPOKE TO ME.

OH REALLY? GOOD ONE.

WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?

REPENT AND DELETE THIS MESSAGE!

YOU'RE COMMITTING A GRAVE SIN, SEMAVİ.

MIND YOUR WORDS!

DON'T KNOW IF HE SPOKE TO YOU,

BUT I KNEW YOU WERE DIFFERENT, SEMAVİ.

WHY NOT? ESPECIALLY IN THIS DAY AND AGE.

LET'S SAY IT'S TRUE WHAT DID HE SAY?

SEMAVİ: I'M NOT A PROPHET.

I'M A MESSENGER.

SEMAVİ: HE ASKED ME TO REVEAL THE TRUTH.

SEMAVİ: EVEN IF NO ONE BELIEVES ME,

I'LL PERSEVERE.

KÜBRA: YOU'LL BE LEADING THEM.

TRUTH IS YOUR POWER. DON'T EVER LOOK BACK.

MIGHTY - ARROGANCE - GREAT - GRAVE

[man] The electricity generated at

the power plant is directed to the grid.

- [man sighs]

- From the grid, it flows to transformers

and is then distributed

to residences at 230 volts.

We suspect that the widespread power

outage in the city

could have been caused

by overloading of the main centers.

So the result is when that happened,

the central plants, which were meant

to serve as backups for one another,

instead became overwhelmed

simultaneously, an outage was inevitable.

Listen, son,

stop telling us how it happened

and tell us whether or not

it was a deliberate attack.

Lecturing us, acting all high and mighty,

with your fancy presentation.

- It's gibberish! Gibberish.

- [man] Hey.

- Nonsense. Am I wrong?

- Kara! Be nice!

[sighs]

So, what do you think?

I mean, I think it's highly likely

that this was a planned attack, yes, sir.

- [Kara scoffs]

- Uh

Identifying the source

would be almost impossible though.

Ha!

- What's your name?

- Buğra, it's Buğra, sir.

- What?

- Buğra.

"Boğra." Look, "Boğra".

You just said it's "almost" impossible.

You said that, right?

See, we're all about

that word around here.

The word "almost."

Investigating even the smallest detail,

whatever it takes.

If you just said "almost", then that means

it's not impossible, isn't that right?

That's true, sir.

Good. Very good. Go on then.

Don't come back until you find something

new to report. You got that, "Boğra"?

Say you got it.

I got it, sir.

You can leave too.

- [man] Kara?

- Mm?

Can you calm down for a second?

- There's no need for you to panic.

- Sure.

No one's taken credit for this. If anyone

had, we'd have busted them already.

- Oh, yeah?

- Yes.

This is the power

department's problem, okay?

So let the intelligence agency

deal with it.

- Because this is not our concern.

- Look, Muammer

Chief. I mean Chief Muammer.

[quiet, contemplative music playing]

If anyone can disrupt the power grid

of a city like Istanbul,

a huge city with a population

of 20 million people,

just think about it.

Think about what else they could do.

'Kay?

I don't expect your help here, but

But at least get out of my way.

We're not 20-year-old kids anymore, man.

We're 50.

- Calm down, take a seat.

- You go ahead.

I have no intention of getting soft.

[contemplative music stops]

This is not going to end well.

I know it won't. This'll get us

in trouble for no good reason,

- mark my words.

- "No good reason"?

- No good reason.

- What are you even saying?

You know Gökhan saved that girl's life,

but you're still doubting him, huh?

It's not that I doubt

what your brother says.

I just

Fine, something is happening.

Your brother is doing some good.

But what is with this

"I'm talking to Allah" nonsense?

Allah forgive us, show us mercy.

What if someone is trying

to mess with your brother?

What if that's all this is?

Or what if he's wrong about all this?

- Isn't that possible?

- But he's not wrong.

I know what I heard, Mom.

Papa spoke to me, too.

He called me "sunshine".

- He said "sunshine"?

- Yes, he called me "sunshine".

He said, "It's not your fault, sunshine."

With just a few words, he healed me.

And it was all because of my brother.

Allah has chosen him.

Because He knows Gökhan is different, Mom.

Allah speaks to me.

What?

Allah

[quiet, contemplative music playing]

He speaks to me.

Gökhan, what is this?

[inhaling]

He's telling us the truth.

I

I was about to k*ll myself.

You were about to what?

To k*ll myself.

And then,

I heard the sound of our father's voice.

He made me turn around.

The things he said

I believe my brother.

Allah chose him.

[Mom] What's she talking about, son?

She's telling the truth.

I was there too.

I saw it, I heard it.

He showed me His miracle.

It was all part of a test.

To make me believe.

It was Him.

I know it sounds ridiculous to you.

But this is the truth.

Allah chose me.

Gökhan, I always knew it.

I knew you were different.

- Salih. Salih, stop.

- I swear I knew it, Gökhan.

- Salih.

- [sobbing] Gökhan

- Gökhan

- [Gökhan] Get up. Come on, get up, Salih.

Come on, stand up, brother.

Salih, come here.

[continues sobbing]

So what you're saying is

Allah

told you all this through text messages,

that's what you're telling me?

Through this this

Application,

he's been speaking to you, is that it?

Don't we always say,

"Allah is everywhere and in everything"?

On phones, televisions, billboards

Why does it matter how He reached me?

Look, Gökhan, I'm worried these

delusions will get the best of you.

[speaking Arabic]

it is said.

"I seek refuge in You from the evil

who whispers into our hearts."

That's what you should do.

I'm worried you're going to commit

a grave sin. You can still stop this.

Get it together.

This is Allah's will, Hodja.

What do you expect me to do,

ignore it? Wouldn't that be a greater sin?

Look, Gökhan.

You have to understand, the claims you're

making are going to be hard to swallow.

The mosque, the marketplace,

everywhere People are talking about it.

And I think you should know

that they're not happy about this.

I just don't want anything bad

to happen to you.

If you just paid more attention, you'd

have heard it yourself already, but

- I do hear it already, Hodja.

- And?

I also hear the prayers

of those whose hearts are pure.

[sighs]

Let them talk.

I can't force anyone to believe.

As Allah himself says,

"Do not weaken and do not grieve."

"You will be superior

if you are true believers."

We cannot know

whom Allah considers to be superior.

[quiet, contemplative music playing]

Allah be with you.

- Mm.

- [music fades out]

[breathing deeply]

Dad, what do you think about this?

Mm.

Do you think

it's possible it really happened?

Do you think Allah actually

you think He might have spoken to Gökhan?

I have no idea.

We've read about these things.

Throughout history, people like that

have often been labeled crazy,

only later to be seen as holy.

But he's probably going

to get himself in trouble.

Not everyone sees it that way.

There was a group of people

who came by today, just to confront him.

If Gökhan hadn't had his people there,

they could have caused real trouble.

You have to ask yourself.

Gather your courage and decide.

Can you stand with Gökhan

despite everything that's going on?

Are you going to be able to handle

the situation if things start to escalate?

[breathing deeply]

[mysterious music playing]

It didn't show, but I was scared today.

Allah, please, help me,

take these fears from me.

Lord, give me strength.

[breathing deeply]

- [chime on cell phone]

- [gasps quietly]

KÜBRA: YOU'LL BE LEADING THEM.

DON'T EVER LOOK BACK. MAKE US HEARD.

How can I? How can I make us heard?

I'm totally alone in this world.

There are only a few people who believe

me, and those who don't are far too many.

How can I?

[chime on cell phone]

KÜBRA: TOMORROW DURING NIGHT PRAYER,

EVERYONE WILL SEE.

[shuddering]

[shuddering]

- What will happen?

- [chime on cell phone]

KÜBRA: DURING THE NIGHT PRAYER,

THOSE WHO ARE SHELTERED

AND THOSE WHO FOLLOW YOU NEED NOT FEAR.

Allah, what will happen?

How am I going to warn people?

Allah, please help me with this.

[chime on cell phone]

[gasps]

KÜBRA: NIGHT LIGHTS

CANNOT DISPERSE THE DARKNESS.

THE REAL DARKNESS IS WITHIN THE LIGHT.

AND THE REAL LIGHT IS IN THE DARKNESS.

[breathing fast]

[mysterious music fades out]

I don't know what's going to happen.

It'll be Allah's will.

[inhales] We'll see tomorrow.

- He asked me to warn people about it.

- As if we don't have enough on our plates.

Have you gone mad, son?

How are you going to warn people about

a disaster when you know nothing about it?

- What are you going to tell them?

- Allah is great, mother.

I'm sure he will show me the way.

Gökhan,

my dad suggested we gather everyone

at the coffeehouse tomorrow.

So you can explain yourself properly.

He said everyone respects you,

so once they understand what's going on,

they'll all be more comfortable.

Sure. That's a good idea, good thinking.

Didn't you just say you needed to warn

people about some kind of disaster?

Why would you gather

everyone into one place then?

It'll be fine, Mom.

You heard the message.

He said, "Those who follow you,

those who are sheltered,

those people will be protected."

The coffeehouse is a good idea.

They'll be protected.

What did you talk about

with the imam earlier?

He seemed pretty agitated

as he was leaving.

He said

"I'm worried you'll commit a grave sin."

He said it wasn't too late to stop this.

He mocked me, like, "You really think

Allah is using an app to talk to you?"

Everyone is stuck on the same thing.

These punks teased me

on the street earlier today,

they said, "Warn your brother, he's about

to get screwed over by the phone bill."

[Gökhan sighs]

Maybe that's what it's about.

What's that?

Technology.

What Allah is using

to communicate with me.

Maybe that's what He'll warn people about.

All right, but how?

I don't know.

I don't know. I don't know.

Maybe it has something

to do again with the power?

[sighs]

[Salih] Right.

He said, "The real light

is within the darkness."

[exhaling deeply]

Allah wants me to warn people.

What else does He have to say?

We need to spread this message

to everyone somehow.

[contemplative music playing]

How are we going to do that

with so little time?

My name is Gökhan Şahinoğlu.

I'm recording this to warn you

about something of utmost importance.

I know that many of you will

probably find my words hard to believe.

But please just hear me out.

[faintly] Allah has been

speaking to me for a while.

You don't believe him either, do you?

Can you believe this nonsense?

Those three have lost their minds.

They don't realize it,

but people are going to be pissed.

Mark my words,

they'll be chasing us out of here soon.

[exhales deeply]

Big day tomorrow.

We'll see whether Gökhan

is telling the truth. Both of us.

It'll be some kind

of disaster if it's true.

And another kind, if it's not.

[breathing deeply]

[Gökhan] My name is Gökhan Şahinoğlu.

I'm recording this to warn you

of something of the utmost importance.

I know many of you will probably

find my words hard to believe.

But please just hear me out.

Allah has been speaking to me for a while.

And He's informed me of a great danger.

- He asked me to warn you.

- [no audible dialogue]

Tomorrow evening, during the night prayer,

only those who are home

and sheltered will be protected.

Do not leave your homes.

To protect yourselves from this peril,

do as I tell you.

Do not forget, only those who

are sheltered will be protected.

Throughout history, those who ignored

Allah's command have faced retribution,

and those who defied him

have met their demise.

Don't be one of the misguided ones.

I'm not a prophet.

I'm merely relaying the message

that's been given to me.

- [music fades out]

- We're about ready to go here, Gökhan.

Everyone in the neighborhood

will gather here to hear you out.

I appreciate it, thank you.

Psst, Gökhan.

You must know what's going to happen

tonight. You can tell me, come on.

We'll all find out together.

[Salih] Gökhan!

What's going on, Salih?

They came to collect Serhat's debt.

They came to the workshop.

Mr. Hamit sold everything. [panting]

What're you saying?

We're screwed. The shop is gone.

Where is Serhat? Is he still in hiding?

They said he's at home.

[loud banging]

Serhat!

[loud banging]

[latch clicking]

- Are you crazy? What's wrong with you?

- What's wrong with you, Serhat?

I warned you. I told you to quit it

before it was too late.

I said if you got into trouble,

come to me, we'd work it out.

Oh, come on, what do you think

you could have done, Gökhan, huh?

You have nothing, what could you do?

Your father's devastated.

None of us can put food on the table.

Yet somehow you're still smiling.

Ahhhhh. Bro, now I see

what your problem is.

You were hoping to become a partner.

You're butt hurt that it didn't happen?

Serhat, watch your words.

And what if I don't, huh?

What're you gonna do? Huh? What?

Oh, right, sorry.

I forgot, you're a holy man.

You're pals with Allah.

You can text him,

"Hey, Allah, please smite Serhat."

- Right?

- S Serhat, shut up.

I know you too well, man.

I know you inside and out.

You think I'm one

of these idiots you're fooling? Huh?

I've had enough

of this whole hero act. It's getting old.

I bet you hid

like a little girl in the army,

no wonder you were the only one who lived.

[quiet, tense music playing]

What? Nothing to say?

In the old days, you'd have hit me by now.

For God's sake.

What do you think, you're some

kind of prophet now, or what?

Huh? What's your deal,

you want world peace?

You wanna end all violence?

What are you after?

Just hit me! Come on, hit me, do it.

Come on, hit me!

I said hit me!

- Come on, hit me!

- Serhat, stop it.

Do it, you son of a b*tch!

Come on, just do it!

What are you trying to do,

patronize me, or something? Huh?

What do you think, you're better than me?

You're too good for this?

Get the f*ck out!

You're a f*cking as*h*le! f*ck off!

[door slams]

[quiet, tense music fades out]

Allah, give me strength.

[man] f*ck off, as*h*le!

Guys, what is this guy's deal?

Isn't there a lawyer

who can get this guy arrested?

f*ck off, you as*h*le.

Obviously this man has no respect for you,

but you should have

some respect for yourselves.

What the hell? For God's sake.

Allah's texting you, yeah, okay.

Like He has nothing better to do.

Come on you can't believe this.

If God were to send a messenger,

it wouldn't be an errand boy

at a repair shop.

Don't worry about it.

- These people are frauds.

- This is expected.

Frauds like this have always been around.

- It's just part of the test.

- You can't buy into it.

[doorbell ringing]

As-salamu alaykum.

Alaykumu s-salam, Salih.

How did it go?

We did what we could and told everyone

we know. So what's next?

Whatever Allah says.

[quiet, contemplative music playing]

- Are you all right?

- No.

No, I'm not.

Mm.

- [Gülcan] Mm-mm.

- Oh, really?

[Serhat breathing deeply]

You'll believe eventually, Serhat.

And what will I believe in?

Well, listen, I'm not as easily convinced

as you are, apparently, Gülcan.

For me to believe,

something major would have to happen.

So tell your brother, part the waters

of the Bosporus or something.

Then I would believe him.

You will believe.

You're just gonna need

some time to get there.

[contemplative music continues]

[people chattering]

- [Gökhan] As-salamu alaykum.

- [men] Alaykumu s-salam.

- My neighbors, brothers, and friends

- [man 1] We can't hear you.

- [man 2] Can't hear, speak up!

- [man 3] Can't hear you.

My neighbors, brothers,

and friends, thank you for coming.

[men] Thank you.

Many of you know me.

I'm a man of faith.

In keeping with my faith,

thus far, in my life,

I have never hurt or wronged anyone.

Those who know me,

know that I'm honest and that I don't lie.

You also know

what I went through while serving.

Since that day, I've been asking myself,

"Was there a reason

why I was the only one to survive

at the outpost on that mountain top?"

I wondered if there was a reason

why Allah spared my life up there.

And finally,

Allah the almighty answered my question.

He touched my heart.

He gave me strength.

He commanded me to follow His path

and to have fellow believers

as my companions on that path.

And He sent His commandments

to you through texts? Is that right?

That's right.

[man] How?

SMS or WhatsApp, man?

[men laugh]

Through an app called SoulTouch.

If that's how He delivers His word to you,

why doesn't He text all of us?

We could all benefit from that.

Why's He only texting you?

Allah transcends both time and space.

He is eternal, and everywhere.

He selects whomever he chooses.

It's not for us to decide.

And you're the one He chose, is that it?

Any chance some raki

was involved in this revelation?

[men laugh]

It's okay, calm down.

[men muttering]

[chime on cell phone]

[mysterious music playing]

Now, why do you think I would be

telling you all this, Mahmut?

I'm doing it because Allah

has commanded me to walk his path.

And yet a man,

who could do something so unthinkable

as to poison his own wife

just to inherit her assets

is sitting in front of me.

Humiliating me.

[men muttering]

I am not the one who will judge you.

Your reckoning awaits in the beyond.

- Is he telling the truth, Mahmut?

- What's he talking about?

It's a lie.

- He's clearly lying.

- [man] Yeah, he's lying.

[Mahmut] I would never do that.

It was heart failure. You all know that.

You can deny it all you want,

only He knows everything, Mahmut.

[man] Shame on you! What kind

of person are you? You b*stard!

We always knew you were

capable of something like this.

[men chattering]

[music fades out]

[tsking]

Listen.

The event Allah told me

to warn you about is near.

- It's time to decide.

- [tense music playing]

Either you become a believer

and stay in here,

or venture out and face the impending

torment that awaits you out there.

Remember.

The universe and time belong to Allah.

For Allah, the past,

present and future are one.

Nothing exists beyond His knowledge.

Do you really believe

that all of these things

these televisions,

cell phones, computers

all of this technology could exist

without His permission, His will?

Consider this.

Perhaps every event

since the invention of the telegram

has led us to this very moment.

Perhaps it all came into being

just to relay this message of His.

All of that time

is less than a moment for him.

He says, "Be," and it is.

Now, after the night prayer,

once again, He is going to say, "Be"

to punish those who do not believe,

and to open your eyes!

I'm going to follow the path

he commanded me to.

Those who believe in me will join.

And those who don't will be left behind.

The choice is yours.

Over 16 million residents of Istanbul

were affected by a power outage

MAJOR POWER OUTAGE IN THE REGION

SUSPECTED t*rror1st ATTACK

The power went off city-wide at 9:30 p.m.

The city almost came to a complete halt

[woman]

Citizens are confused and concerned.

DARKNESS

We are conducting a broad investigation

into the exact cause of the power outage

that disrupted so many lives.

[man] People are paying

their bills on time.

The government needs to find

a solution for this immediately.

Because none of these outages are random.

Governments and private companies

they're the ones involved in this.

[spokesman] We're diligently exploring

the factors behind this outage

to determine whether it resulted from

natural causes, a technical glitch

or intentional sabotage.

[woman] When power went out, the patient's

pulmonary pump stopped functioning.

The generators failed,

requiring me to intervene manually.

Such power outages pose significant risks

to patients who rely on these devices.

There's no life without electricity,

really, you know?

[woman] The noise that accompanied

the power outage

also sparked panic among the public.

- [man 1] Oh God, what is this noise?

- [low frequency rumbling]

- What's going on?

- [man 2] Must be a Day of Judgement.

It sounded like the Judgement Day trumpet.

The weird thing about the sound was

the pitch of the frequency. My opinion.

I didn't hear it. I was listening

to music. It was my roommate who heard it.

At first, we didn't know what was

going on. We were all very scared.

[man] It's still too early to determine

the underlying cause of the outages.

At this stage, we cannot say definitively

whether this was the result

of a cyber attack

or if it could have been

an act of terrorism.

But please,

rest assured that our expert teams

are thoroughly investigating every po

[sighs]

Throughout history, those who ignored

Allah's command have faced retribution,

and those who defied him

have met their demise.

Don't be one of the misguided ones.

Pay heed to the message

Allah asked me to convey to you.

[faint, electrical hum]

Take this.

How did you know?

I had a dream.

Allah told me.

Allah just stopped whatever He was doing

to appear in your dream, and tell only you

about the future. Is that right?

Exactly right.

[groans faintly]

- You're playing me, aren't you?

- Of course not.

This is a very serious matter.

Who was behind this power outage?

Which organization do you belong to?

I don't belong to any.

My loyalty is to Allah only.

[faintly] Hmm.

[indistinct, police radio chatter]

[tapping fingers]

[chair creaks]

Stop trying to give me this bullshit!

Just tell me the truth!

I could ruin your life

in just two minutes!

Allah couldn't even save you then!

Got it?

[knocking]

- [knocking]

- What now?

- Yes?

- Sir, we've got something new.

You got something new? It's in the bag?

- Uh, no, sir. This is just

- There.

What is this? How many people is this for?

Here.

Come to my office. Move.

So what you're telling me

is that this guy's phone is magically

somehow clean as f*ck, is that right?

I mean, it's as if

he bought it this morning, sir.

No communications, no social media.

Nothing except

for the most basic applications.

Did you hear all that, Chief?

What do you think?

You think this is normal or what?

He clearly found out

that he was going to get detained

and wiped his phone clean.

If this guy isn't a t*rror1st, who is?

[Muammer] I don't care about that, Kara.

I'm getting a ton of sh*t from the guys

at the top to get to the bottom of this.

- You got two days, pal.

- [groans]

Confession, evidence

Find everything and bring it to me.

[sighs]

Ahhhh.

So, you're not a greedy man, I see.

[exhales deeply]

All right, as*h*le.

Now, where were we?

Huh?

So, were you guys also the cause

of the first power outage?

"You guys"? I don't quite

understand what you mean.

Listen, you prick,

stop messing around and tell me.

How did you set up the sound system, huh?

You're full of anger.

Huh?

You're full of anger.

You've suffered a lot.

You're still suffering.

[sighs]

The hell are you talking about?

But don't worry.

You're also innocent. Just like I am.

[sighing]

Listen, you quack.

If you don't stop pretending to be

a psychic, I'm gonna f*ck you up.

What group are you with?

[exhales deeply]

It seems he's a mechanic.

He lives in Ormancılar.

Everyone in the neighborhood loves him.

He's like a hero around there.

Apparently, he had saved

a young girl right before this incident.

There are a few more people

whose lives he saved.

From what I've been told,

he's a fearless, brave, honest man.

- He's also engaged, her name is Merve.

- [knocking]

Yeah?

Excuse me sir, we found something.

It might be important.

- Are you finished?

- Oh, uh, yes, sir.

Come, "Boğra," come in.

[door shuts]

What is it?

Um, well, Gökhan, he

He served in the miltary

at a mountain post.

- Oh, yeah?

- Uhhhhhhhhhhhh

While he was there, the post got raided.

- Uhhhhhhhhhhhh

- "Uhhhhh, uhhhh"

Come on, man, just say it.

The memo is a just a little bit long, sir.

I'm just trying to summarize it as I read.

Fine, give it to me.

You are a traitor.

A traitor.

You're a traitor.

Which organization are you with?

I'm against all weapons,

terrorism, and violence.

[clears throat] Ahhhh.

Well, if you're not a t*rror1st

then why is it

that you are the only survivor

of this raid?

Even the army got suspicious.

They opened an investigation.

Why is that?

It should be written in there.

I was acquitted.

Yes.

It's all written here.

There's just one thing missing.

You refused the medal, the honors, and you

haven't even taken your veteran's pension.

Why?

- That's my personal business.

- Oh, well, go f*ck your business.

If you supposedly love

your country so much,

why would you refuse the pay

and the medal, then?

- [pounds desk]

- Tell me why!

- Huh?

- That was my penance.

What?

My penance.

How could I accept awards and money

when all the friends I served with

had just been k*lled?

It was the penance for my survival.

Dude, f*ck your penance. Just tell me.

Who the hell are you?

Who the hell are you?

You know who I am, sir.

[sighs]

[sighs]

Poker-faced son of a b*tch.

You haven't spoken a single word of truth

since you walked in here, have you?

Everything I said is true.

[scoffs]

BREAKING NEWS

[woman] Welcome back.

WHO IS BEHIND THE POWER OUTAGE?

The video believed to be connected

to yesterday's power outage disaster

has already garnered

millions of views online.

The police are currently investigating

any potential link

between, Gökhan Şahinoğlu,

and the power outage.

Do not forget, only those

who are sheltered will be protected.

The man, sometimes known as Semavi,

is a lead mechanic in Ormancular.

POWER OUTAGE IN ISTANBUL

Who does this guy think he is? Allah is

the only one who can see into the future.

There's no way an idiot like

that could be a prophet.

You think he has powers

to control electricity?

- Then what happens?

- What?

They always end up

in an asylum or in prison.

I personally don't believe

that it's possible,

but I know that there are some people

who do believe. I guess mmm.

If these people had read the Qur'an

even once, they'd know that this is a sin.

We've seen so many people like him, okay?

If everyone believed

they were the Messiah,

I can't imagine where we would end up.

I mean, we've all seen the video.

It's the same pattern, and similar themes.

It's clear that he's connected

with a fundamentalist group of some kind.

All his ties should be revealed,

and the police should investigate

every potential lead,

every bit of information we can find.

[Kara] Come in.

- Sir?

- Yes?

You might want to see this.

They're here for Semavi

I mean, for Gökhan Şahinoğlu.

We've given them warnings,

but they still won't leave.

- What do we do now?

- [people chattering]

[blows air]

- We let him go.

- We let him go?

We let him go.

He's not cooperating anyway.

Better we let him go than keep him.

This way we'll actually

get some new information.

Hundreds of people have gathered

outside the police station

to show their support of Semavi,

or Gökhan Şahinoğlu,

the man who was arrested on charges

of inciting public fear and panic.

Now, as you can see,

this is a very peaceful demonstration.

The participants who have gathered

are even refraining from chanting loudly.

Meanwhile, social media posts

in various languages

demanding freedom for the man,

known as Semavi, are going viral.

[moody ethnic music playing]

[crowd] Semavi! Semavi! Semavi!

Semavi! Semavi! Semavi! Semavi! Semavi!

Semavi! Semavi! Semavi! Semavi! Semavi!

Semavi! Semavi! Semavi! Semavi! Semavi!
