The Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality (IMM) trial, involving 414 defendants including the detained IMM Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu, continues on its 70th day with the defenses of the defendants who are not in custody. Here's a moment-by-moment account of what happened in the courtroom...
In the İmamoğlu Organised Crime Case, the audio recordings of former CHP Member of Parliament and Ekrem İmamoğlu's advisor, Turan Aydoğan, who is being tried as a defendant, regarding a $200,000 bribe and money transfer were played one by one in court. Aydoğan, who admitted to saying "I am your only contact," "I will bring the money on Thursday," and "Does a bribe need a document?" in the recordings, defended the bribe statement as a "joke."
The 70th hearing of the 'organized crime for profit' case, being heard at the Istanbul 33rd High Criminal Court, began with the participation of the detained defendants Ekrem İmamoğlu and Mehmet Murat Çalık. The hearing continues with the defense of the non-detained defendant Turan Aydoğan.
The sixth day of the second hearing in the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality (IMM) case, in which Ekrem İmamoğlu is also on trial, began in Silivri.
