Lost Trillion Case
The Lost Trillion Case, also known as the Missing Trillion Case, ((トルコ語:Kayıp Trilyon Davası)) was an embezzlement scandal in Turkey involving the use of forged documents by the Welfare Party ((トルコ語:Refah Partisi), RP) executives to prevent the return of Treasury grants in amount of around one trillion lira, i.e. one million in today's currency (around 477,000) following the ban of the party in 1998. Party leader and former prime minister Necmettin Erbakan as well as 68 party officials received prison sentences after a court trial, although the former's was commuted to house arrest.
==Background==
The Welfare Party, an Islamist political party in Turkey founded and led by Necmettin Erbakan (1926–2011), had received grants from the Treasury in accordance with the applicable laws. In June 1998, the coalition cabinet of Erbakan was forced to resign following the submission of a memorandum by the military on February 28, 1998.〔 The same year, the Constitutional Court banned the Welfare Party on the grounds that it tried to overthrow Turkey's secular system and to promote Islamic fundamentalism.〔 Erbakan was suspended from active politics for a term of five years.〔 The bans wawere upheld by the European Court of Human Rights as well.〔
The Treasury requested the return of the financial aid worth around one trillion lira, i.e. one million in today's currency (around 477,000) from the then-closed RP. The party executives declared that the funds were spent on party activities. However, an investigation found that the amount was converted into 10 million Deutsche Mark and was then deposited in Yapı ve Kredi Bankası. Early in 1997, the amount was withdrawn from the bank.〔
