Kilicdaroglu to Erdogan: "You've drowned in sin and filth"
The opposition's presidential candidate Kemal Kilicdaroglu rebuked his rival two days ahead of the election runoff in Turkey, saying, "You've drowned in sin and filth."
A fake opposition campaign video with inserted images of a senior Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) figure was played on giant screen at a campaign rally of Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who later admitted that the video was a doctored one while adding that it still would not make a difference anyway.
Erdogan claimed during and after the rally that the video was actually made in cooperation by Kilicdaroglu and PKK leadership, till he admitted weeks later that it was a "clever manipulation."
After repeatedly condemning the video scam after Erdogan's admittal, Kilicdaroglu further ramped up the tone as he tweeted on Friday:
"Your slander and lies never end. You are a slanderer. You have drowned in sin and filth. Enough."
He added:
"You owe an apology to our nation, Erdogan. Make a decent move and give up blatantly committing such crimes."
