Mahmut Tanal, who was attacked in Parliament, hospitalized: AKP's Gökçek threw a punch

A dispute broke out between the CHP and AKP during the oath-taking ceremony for Akın Gürlek and Mustafa Çiftçi. A scuffle occurred around the podium, and AKP's Osman Gökçek punched CHP's Mahmut Tanal. Tanal was seen with a bleeding nose. It was stated that Tanal has been hospitalized.

CHP deputies argued that Gürlek could not take the oath, claiming he had not resigned from his position as Chief Public Prosecutor. The AKP opposed this claim, stating that the process was in accordance with the Constitution. Deputy Speaker of the TBMM Bekir Bozdağ also stated that there was no procedural error.

TANAL'S NOSE BLED, HE WAS HOSPITALIZED

As soon as Bozdağ invited Gürlek to the podium to take the oath, CHP deputies headed toward the podium in protest. Following this, AKP deputies also went to the podium, and tensions in Parliament rose. During the ensuing scuffle, it was observed that AKP Ankara Deputy Osman Gökçek punched CHP Şanlıurfa Deputy Mahmut Tanal. Images of Tanal's bleeding nose drew attention.
