Sources: 14. Developments: 2. Investigations by Turkish prosecutors have uncovered different methods of alleged prostitution mediation and solicitation. In Istanbul, an investigation titled “Ailem Güvende” (My Family is Safe) has focused on an alleged network involving paid sexual services for men. Testimony from a suspect suggests an individual named Emre Tanış facilitated these activities by using nude photographs of men to secure paid encounters and allegedly operated a WhatsApp group to market others. In a separate case in Yalova, legal proceedings were initiated against Tevfik Beyhan and Dilan P. following a social media live stream. Beyhan, using the pseudonym ‘Reşo’, allegedly used the stream to invite young women to work at a casino by promising food, accommodation, and earnings. Investigations revealed Beyhan was a customer rather than a manager. He was arrested in Bursa, and prosecutors are seeking up to three years of imprisonment for the charge of ‘distributing or spreading products containing images, writings, or words prepared for the purpose of facilitating or mediating prostitution’. ## Timeline ### 2026-10-10: Tevfik Beyhan arrested for soliciting women via social media live stream Tevfik Beyhan has been arrested in Turkey after using a social media live stream to solicit young women for work at a casino, posing as a manager. 7 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/tevfik-beyhan-faces-prison-for-soliciting-women-via-social-media ### 2026-09-14: Istanbul investigation reveals alleged male sex work network A suspect in Istanbul's “Ailem Güvende” investigation has accused Emre Tanış of facilitating a paid sexual services network for men and operating a WhatsApp group for such activities. 8 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/istanbul-investigation-reveals-alleged-male-sex-work-network --- Cite as: Prostitution mediation investigations in Turkey.
