Party members gathered in front of the municipal building following allegations that Mayor Köksal had switched to the AKP.

While police took extensive security measures, CHP Provincial Chair Hasan Karadeniz made a press statement, reminding that there has been no official announcement yet, and said, "Since these reports began to circulate last night, neither I, as the provincial chair, nor our party leader have been able to reach our mayor; she has not answered calls and has not returned them.

She has not replied to messages. This silence is not a good sign. There is no definitive statement, but unfortunately, our mayor has bowed to political pressure and could not resist it."
