İBB President Ekrem İmamoğlu was arrested as part of a corruption investigation against the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality, while he was released in a terrorism investigation.
STRIKING STATEMENT FROM MHP While İmamoğlu's arrest has caused a wide reaction, the first comment regarding the investigation came from the MHP. MHP Deputy Chairman Feti Yıldız stated, "The arrest is a precautionary measure to restrict the freedom of the suspect or defendant in order to ensure the integrity of the judicial process and to reveal the material truth without any doubt."
MHP Deputy Chairman Feti Yıldız. "THE PRESENCE OF SOLID EVIDENCE IS THE REASON FOR ARREST" In catalog crimes, strong suspicion of crime and the presence of solid evidence are the reasons for arrest. Some political parties have opposed this unwisely, but with the judicial reforms made, a vertical appeal process for arrests has been introduced.
