Istanbul Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu Investigated for Alleged Threats Against Chief Prosecutor Akın Gürlek on January 20, 2025
Jan 20, 2025, 10:26 AM
The Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's Office has initiated an investigation against Ekrem İmamoğlu, the Mayor of Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality, due to his statements regarding Akın Gürlek, the Chief Public Prosecutor of Istanbul. The investigation stems from İmamoğlu's comments made during the 'Modern Hukuk ve Yargının Siyasallaşması Paneli' on January 20, 2025, which were perceived as threats against Gürlek and his family. The allegations include charges of 'threat' and 'targeting individuals involved in counter-terrorism.' İmamoğlu had criticized the investigation against CHP Gençlik Kolları Başkanı Cem Aydın, stating that the aim was to intimidate the public. İmamoğlu has responded to the investigation, asserting that his words were not threats and that he stands by his statements, emphasizing his call for an impartial judiciary for the future of all children in the country.
