In the case where Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu is accused of calling the members of the Supreme Election Council (YSK) "fools," the Istanbul Anadolu 7th Criminal Court sentenced him to 2 years, 7 months, and 15 days in prison and imposed a political ban for 4 years. BOMB CLAIM ON LIVE BROADCASTJournalist Altan Sancar claimed during a live broadcast on SÖZCÜ TV that the CHP would announce Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu as its presidential candidate following a possible 'political ban' decision from the Court of Appeals. "IT IS A PIECE OF INFORMATION I HAVE CONFIRMED"Sancar stated, "Let me give you a very bold piece of information. It is something I have confirmed after discussing it during the broadcast break. If the Court of Appeals issues a decision that upholds the sentence of Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu, the CHP management is very close to announcing İmamoğlu's candidacy." "IF A BAN IS IMPOSED, IT WILL BE ANNOUNCED FROM TODAY"This is clearly a stance. If such a decision comes from the Court of Appeals, İmamoğlu's candidacy for the presidency will be announced to the public from today. This view has become a serious perspective within the party at this time."
