After reports that an evacuation decision would be served at the CHP headquarters, a major scuffle broke out between Kılıçdaroğlu supporters and those keeping vigil at the headquarters.
After the appellate court's ruling of absolute nullity regarding the CHP Congress, the ongoing activity increased following the claim that Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu had requested an evacuation of the party headquarters at midnight, which was communicated to the CHP headquarters management.
While the CHP administration summoned party officials to the headquarters, the call made by the CHP Ankara Provincial Directorate stated, "It's time for unity to protect our party," requesting members and citizens to come to the headquarters.
POLICE PRESENCE INCREASED
As the number of police around the headquarters increased, party buses were pulled into the headquarters garden. CHP deputies and party officials, except those on duty, arrived at the headquarters and began to wait.
WAITING CONTINUES IN THE MORNING HOURS
Party members, CHP deputies, Party Assembly members, and provincial and district chairmen continue their vigil in front of the CHP headquarters as of morning.
SCUFFLE ERUPTS
A dispute broke out between party members close to Kılıçdaroğlu, who came to the front of the headquarters, and those standing guard at the headquarters. The argument quickly turned into a fight, and party members removed those said to be close to Kılıçdaroğlu from the headquarters.
TENSION DEFUSED BY CHP DEPUTIES
After the rising tension, figures such as Suat Özçağdaş, Seyit Torun, and Aylin Nazlıaka intervened to ease the tension. A call was made for party members to enter.
