Ozel Slams Erdogan as ‘Coup Leader’ – Clashes With Police at CHP Rally for Imamoglu

During a rally in Istanbul in support of imprisoned mayor Ekrem Imamoglu, Turkish opposition leader Ozgur Ozel accused President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of acting like a coup leader. The demonstration, organized by the Republican People’s Party (CHP), marked the 100th day since Imamoglu’s arrest. Tensions flared between protesters and police at the end of the gathering, with reports of tear gas being used and several arrests made, including journalists who were later released.
