Istanbul’s popular mayor Ekrem Imamoglu was jailed and suspended in a shocking crackdown that has sparked the country’s biggest street protests in over a decade. His wife, Dilek Imamoglu, led massive crowds with defiant words: “He will defeat you!” Stripped of his post and sent to Silivri prison, Imamoglu still vowed to fight on. Meanwhile, the CHP party officially named him their 2028 presidential candidate.
