Kılıçdaroğlu, against whom a decision for forced appearance has been issued, challenged.

The Istanbul 48th Criminal Court of First Instance issued a "forced appearance" decision regarding former CHP Chairman Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, despite the objections of his lawyers. It was stated that the decision was made within the scope of the defamation case opened by former President Erdoğan's lawyer Mustafa Doğan İnal.

FIRST STATEMENT FROM KILIÇDAROĞLU

After the forced appearance decision was issued, former CHP Chairman Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu shared a video on his X account, reacting to the decision by saying, "If I take a step back for this people until my last breath, I am dishonorable."

"FRIENDS, WHAT DAYS HAVE WE COME TO?"

Kılıçdaroğlu used the following expressions in the video he shared under the title "Hodri Meydan"; "Friends, what days have we come to? Erdoğan has come out and is complaining about me, saying 'We will soften, but Kılıçdaroğlu does not allow it,' and that is not enough, he is trying to intimidate me with the palace judiciary.

"WE WILL NOT SURRENDER A SINGLE CHP MEMBER TO THE PALACE JUDICIARY"

As long as I continue to be Erdoğan's nightmare, as long as the economic crisis continues, the enmity towards Kılıçdaroğlu will increase. This is a clear and direct call to those trying to push CHP members out of politics with various tricks: We will not surrender a single CHP member to the palace judiciary. We will not let them harm me or any of my fellow travelers. Stop giving orders to the judiciary. If your problem is with me, I will continue to stand tall.

"I SWEAR TO HOLD YOU ACCOUNTABLE"

I swear to hold accountable the tenders you handed over to the five-member gang, the corruption, and every penny you stole from the citizens' pockets. If I take a step back for this people until my last breath, I am dishonorable."
