İmamoğlu's advisor İbrahim Özkan reacted strongly to Akşener's complaint to MASAK. Özkan stated, "We unfortunately saw too late that a person we believed in had a different agenda."

Özkan expressed that Akşener claimed his wealth had increased rapidly. He emphasized that he has no accounts to hide from the state.

"When the time comes, we will also have a few words to say," Özkan stated, asserting that he speaks based on concrete evidence.

President's Chief Advisor Oktay Saral indirectly accused İmamoğlu and praised the AK Party's Arnavutköy Mayor, defending AK Party governance.

As political tensions in Istanbul continue, the accusations against İmamoğlu's advisor and the responses are drawing attention. This situation may lead to more debates in the coming days.
