public perception

When the Berlin Imam Abu Bilal Ismail, in his Friday sermon on July 18, 2014, described Gaza as the “land of jihad ” and the Jews as “ butcher of prophets ” and started a prayer for their worldwide annihilation, Taş filed a complaint against him for incitement to the masses at the same time all members of the federal and state parliament of Turkish origin to join the report. Taş is seen as the enemy of German and Turkish right-wing extremists and was therefore temporarily under police protection. In June 2013 runes and death threats were affixed to his apartment, and in December 2017 he was hit in the face by a Turkish right-wing extremist. On December 15, 2018, the Berlin police initiated an investigation into drunkenness in traffic and escaping from an accident against Taş, because he was drunk and struck a lantern with his car and then drove on. As a result, Taş announced that he was leaving his spokesman's post and his post on the group's executive committee. The House of Representatives' Legal Committee lifted Taş's immunity in August 2019. In October 2019, a penalty order in the amount of 5600 euros (70 daily rates of 80 euros) was issued against Taş.
