Career
As Turkish prime minister, Bulent Ecevit admitted that a secret army had been involved in torture, assassinations and coups d'etat, which prompted the serving defence minister Giray to retort "Ecevit had better keep his fucking mouth shut!".[1]
Poisoned by deep state
Ecevit's last premiership was his longest at almost four years, and ultimately his most consequential. Rumors about Bülent Ecevit's ill health were confirmed when he was taken to Başkent University Ankara Hospital on 4 May, 2002. He was taken out of the hospital by Rahşan[2] and brought to their home when his condition worsened.[2] Bülent rested at home for a while, but was taken to the hospital again on 17 May and stayed there for eleven days. Rahşan shared her doubts about her husbands treatment with public during this period. Her allegations were denied, but the issue was brought up again in the Ergenekon trials in the following years.
