Istanbul mayor on trial for threats

Cape Times

|

June 17, 2025

ISTANBUL'S jailed mayor Ekrem Imamoglu, the leading opponent of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, appeared in court yesterday on charges of threatening the city’s public prosecutor.

The case is one of a number of investigations targeting Imamoglu, but is not connected to the graft probe that led to his arrest in March, which sparked Turkiye’s worst street protests in over a decade.

Imamoglu, 54, is on trial over remarks he made allegedly questioning the integrity of Istanbul's chief public prosecutor, Akin Gurlek.

He faces charges of threatening, insulting and targeting an official.

Yesterday's hearing was taking place at Istanbul's Silivri prison, where Imamoglu has been held since late March.
