Controversies
[edit | edit source]Show TV case
[edit | edit source]In July 2019, Yılmaz filed a lawsuit against Show TV for using his channel's videos without permission and publishing defamatory broadcasts. As a result of the lawsuit, it was reported that Show TV would pay him ₺1.43 million in non-pecuniary damages.[citation needed] Show TV later denied this claim.[6]
2019 UEFA Super Cup controversy
[edit | edit source]In August 2019, Yılmaz jumped onto the field at the 2019 UEFA Super Cup, played at Vodafone Park between two English clubs Liverpool and Chelsea. 4 other people who accompanied Yılmaz during the streak were taken into custody. As a result of these events and subsequent criticism by YouTubers such as Enes Batur as well as media outlets, the number of subscribers on his channel started to decrease.[7]
The Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's Office prepared an indictment against Yılmaz in June 2020. For Yılmaz and his three friends a one to three-year prison sentence was demanded. Yılmaz is being prosecuted for entering banned areas and his friends for assisting with the crime. Yilmaz and his friends were released on probation.[8]
