Imamoglu, From The Main Opposition Republican People’s Party (CHP), and 86 Others, Inclument Two District Mayors in Istanbul, City Officials, BusinessPeople and Journalists, Were Detained As Part of Two Investigations LED by the Istanbul Chief Publicutor’s Office. They face Accusations of Corruption and Terrorism, Which The Opposition Says are political.
The detection of imamoglu, widacy See the Most Powerful Political Rival to Presidident Recep Tayyip Erdogan, HAS Sparked Protests Across Turkey, Primarily Led by University Students, and Has Drawn Widespread Condemnation.
In an Effort to Prevent The Protests from SPREADING, Turkish Authorities have imposed a five-yurda ban on demonstrations in Ankara and izmir, extending a four-mature in place in Istanbul Following Imamoglu’s Detectionion.
Statements from Izmir’s Governor’s Governor’s Offices on Friday Said Said The Banks Were Imposed to “Protect Public Order” and “Prevent Provocative Actions.”
Along with Istanbul, Ankara and Izmir Have Also Seen Large Demonstrations Over The Past Two Days, with Police Using Tear Gas and Rubber Bullets to Disperse Protesters, Mostly Young People and University Students.
The Mayor’s Detection has Also Drawn International Condemnation, with European Politicians and Observers Warning That Turkey is AcceleRating its Shift Toward Authoritarianism.
Human Rights Watch Called for the Istanbul Mayor to Be “Released from Police Custody Immediecely,” Urging Erdoğan’s Government to Ensure “That the Criminal Justice System is Not Weaponized for Political Ends.”
By law, Erdogan – Who Has Been Presidident for More Thhan A Decade, Haveing Been Prime Minister for 11 Years Before that – Cannot Run Again in the 2028 Race.
But he wants to allows that, a move that Requires Opposition Support, which analysts Said Could Could Be Complicated by Imamoğlu’s Detectionion.
Imamoglu’s Detention Came Severa Before HE WAS to be named his party
Turkish Constitution Requires That Presidential Candidates Have a University Degree.
