Böcek's son, MGB, was determined to be abroad. Muhittin Böcek was referred to the courthouse and arrested, while his former daughter-in-law, ZK, was released on probation and subject to a travel ban. Böcek was subsequently suspended from office.

In the course of the investigation, Metropolitan Municipality Deputy Secretary General Serkan Temuçin, who was detained, and Tuncay Kaya, who worked as a director in the Department of Urban Aesthetics, were arrested on charges of "extortion," while IT support worker Halil K. was released on a judicial control measure and house arrest.
