Sözcü newspaper columnist Emin Çölaşan claimed that governors and district governors are being brought in to replace dismissed mayors, and that municipalities not aligned with the government are being targeted for weakening through various methods.
In his column, noting that voters are being intimidated, especially in small settlements, Çölaşan stated, "The government is playing a very big game, but unfortunately, our 'independent judiciary' is being used in this game."
Furthermore, drawing attention to the possibility of Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu being arrested for various reasons, Çölaşan used the following expressions:
The government is playing a very big game, but unfortunately, our 'independent judiciary' is being used in this game.
We are witnessing this for the first time during their era.
In the end, it seems like Ekrem İmamoğlu will be arrested for one reason or another.
The biggest rival will be eliminated; they have no other choice.
