On July 19, 2024, during a raid by the Narcotics and Smuggling Prevention Directorate, Kılınçarslan and İbiş were found with approximately 44 grams of drugs, including 82 packets of suspected cannabis, 22 MDMA pills, and about 1 gram of suspected cocaine. The police also seized 50 euros with drug residue, 8,000 TL, and 1,000 euros in cash, along with a precision scale.

The police reported that the suspects were caught in the act and had confessed to buying the drugs from an individual, consuming some, and selling 10 grams of cannabis for 8,000 TL. While searches of their residences did not reveal any additional illegal substances, the suspects admitted their guilt.

Judge Jale Ergüden has ordered that both suspects remain in custody for seven days while the investigation continues. During this period, further analysis of the drugs and fingerprint examination of the packaging will be conducted.
