It became known that a popular opposition politician and mayor Imamoglu was arrested in Istanbul.
Law enforcement authorities have initiated a large-scale operation in Istanbul, the Sabah newspaper reported.
The operation led to the issuance of an arrest warrant for Mayor Ekrem Imamoglu in connection with an investigation into corruption allegations in the capital’s municipality.
On Monday, Istanbul University decided to revoke Imamoglu’s diploma, preventing him from running for the country’s presidency.
The Istanbul mayor was the only candidate in the primaries from the largest opposition People’s Republican Party (CHP).
