So, who is Sinem Dedetaş, who serves as the Mayor of Üsküdar? How old is she and what positions has she held?
Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality (IMM) Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu’s arrest on corruption charges has upended the city's political agenda. The fact that no arrest warrant was issued for İmamoğlu on charges of 'aiding an armed terrorist organization' has, for now, eliminated the risk of a trustee being appointed.
