We lost businessman Nezir Kırdar, one of the Iraqi Turkmen who served as a member of the Executive Council of the Marmara Group Foundation in 2000-2003. Nezir Kırdar was also a Kirkuk Deputy when he was living in Iraq. While we wish mercy from God to our friend, Nezir Kırdar, who is also a close friend of the 9th President Süleyman Demirel, we would like also commemorate with mercy and respect his colleagues Şahap Kocatopçu, Ogan Soysal, and Zühdi Hacıoğlu on this occasion.
