Former AKP deputy Şamil Tayyar made notable remarks regarding the potential imprisonment of Ekrem İmamoğlu. Tayyar stated that while detention should generally be used as a precautionary measure, it is sometimes used for punitive purposes in Turkey. Tayyar said, "No one thinks İmamoğlu will flee. If there is no suspicion of evidence tampering or flight risk, there is no problem with him being tried without arrest."

360 DEPUTIES WILL BE SUFFICIENT

Stating that the CHP will be in opposition in the 2027 election, Tayyar said, "A majority of 360 is sufficient, it can be achieved with the DEM Party," expressing that political arithmetic will continue to function correctly. Stating that the President will act in unison, Tayyar noted that the opposition might take a stance against this situation, but as the resolution process progresses, the opposition will not be able to remain indifferent.
