An access ban has been imposed on the X account of CHP presidential candidate and imprisoned Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality (İBB) Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu.
The access ban was implemented after midnight on May 8. The statement "In response to a legal request, access to @ekrem_imamoglu has been restricted within the borders of TR" appeared on İmamoğlu's X page.
Since İmamoğlu entered prison, his statements and messages had been shared via his X account.
The last post made via İmamoğlu's account was for the CHP rally held at Beyazıt Square, which included the words, "We are meeting at Beyazıt Square this evening at 20:30. Bring your diploma and come."
STATEMENT FROM GÖKHAN GÜNAYDIN
CHP Group Deputy Chairman Gökhan Günaydın made a statement regarding the issue.
Günaydın stated, "They have blocked access to Ekrem İmamoğlu's X account from Turkey.
Just as they thought they could leave the area in darkness by not allowing lighting equipment into Beyazıt Square.
Tomorrow, the Mayor will have millions of X accounts. It has long been clear that there is no integrity in your book. Shame on you!"
