He supported the Attorney General’s observations on the disproportionately high crime rates relative to the population. However, Erhürman pointed out that the core issue lies in the fact that the country's actual population remains unknown, with the current crime rates reflecting only detected offenses.

Erhürman warned that the ongoing unchecked population growth could further exacerbate the crime problem in the coming years. He questioned whether the state would be able to meet the increasing demand for police, prosecutors, and judges without a well-structured population policy. He also emphasized that similar issues were present in other critical sectors like education, healthcare, and traffic.

Erhürman criticized the lack of planning and concern from those governing the country, stating, "How do negligence, lack of planning, and carelessness destroy a country, especially when it comes to the population? We are witnessing a textbook example of this created by those who claim to govern the country with indifference!"
