Decision reached in investigation regarding Murat Ongun

Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality (IMM) Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu's advisor Murat Ongun was the subject of a criminal complaint filed with the prosecutor's office by the Ministry of Interior's General Directorate of Provincial Administration, Department of Controllers, regarding allegations that he had taken a luxury vacation with his family at the Courchevel ski resort and was living in a house worth 50 million TL.

The Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's Office determined that the ski vacation in question did not take place in the world-famous Courchevel and that there was no evidence to suggest that the vacation expenses were obtained through irregular means.
