Tech magnate's aggressive action causes an uproar: Employee targeted with flower pot throw by owner of prominent Turkish technology outlet
In a shocking turn of events, Hakkı Alkan, the owner of ShiftDelete, a major Turkish technology news outlet, has been embroiled in a heated dispute with his employee, Samet Jankovic. The argument, according to Alkan, revolved around internal matters. However, Jankovic has accused Alkan of assault and has filed a criminal complaint, alleging violation of personal freedom and complicity in mobbing.
Jankovic, who worked for Alkan for about 4.5 years, claims that the incident occurred during an argument where Alkan threw a flower pot filled with gravel at him. This allegation contrasts with Alkan's statement, where he described the object as a "flower branch." The incident has drawn significant attention, with videos circulating on social media.
The case has been referred to the judiciary, and authorities are expected to review statements from both parties and the footage before launching an investigation. Jankovic has also obtained a medical report of the assault, and the court process is ongoing.
In addition to the assault allegations, Jankovic has raised concerns about workplace conditions. He claims that none of the extra hours he worked over the past four years were compensated for him or his colleagues. Jankovic also accused the workplace of mobbing and unpaid overtime, further fuelling the controversy.
Social media users have criticised Alkan for his response to the incident, particularly his description of the flower pot as a "flower branch." The incident has sparked a wider discussion about workplace rights and the treatment of employees in the tech industry.
In response to the allegations, Alkan submitted the office security camera footage of the incident to the authorities. Jankovic, on the other hand, has promised to provide further details about the incident and reveal "bigger news" in a video on his YouTube channel.
Despite the ongoing court process, Jankovic has stated that he will continue on his own path. It remains to be seen how this situation will unfold, but one thing is certain - the tech industry is watching closely.
