Support for Halk TV owner Mahiroğlu from İmamoğlu

Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu issued a statement of support for the channel following the arrest warrant issued for Halk TV owner Cafer Mahiroğlu.

In his statement, İmamoğlu said, "Halk TV is the voice of the people. You will not be able to silence the voice of the people with your conspiracies, nor will you be able to cover up the truth with slanderers."

The following statement was shared on behalf of Ekrem İmamoğlu from the Presidential Candidate Office's X social media account:

"Halk TV is being targeted for punishment because it broadcast the reaction shown by millions of our citizens against the March 19 coup attempt.

Issuing an arrest warrant for Cafer Mahiroğlu based on the slander of someone he says he does not know is a clear intimidation tactic against the media that speaks the truth.

Halk TV is the voice of the people. You will not be able to silence the voice of the people with your conspiracies, nor will you be able to cover up the truth with slanderers.

Our nation is aware of everything. The nation is great, and the voice of the nation is the most powerful."
