Investigation Launched Against Özgür Özel! Initial Reactions from CHP

An investigation has been launched against CHP leader Özgür Özel by the Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's Office. This situation has become a significant topic within the party.
Özgür Özel made strong criticisms against President Erdoğan during a rally in Gaziosmanpaşa. These criticisms led to an investigation due to his remarks about Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor Akın Gürlek.

CHP Istanbul Provincial Chairman Özgür Çelik expressed their support for Özel, stating, "We will not be afraid! We will not give up! We are determined!" This situation is seen as a message of unity and solidarity within the party.
Özgür Özel's remarks also drew strong reactions from the AK Party. AKP Spokesperson Ömer Çelik criticized Özel's language, stating, "This language is not political language."
The grounds for the investigation were stated as "threatening a judicial officer to prevent them from performing their duties" and "publicly insulting a public official due to their duties." This situation has further escalated the political atmosphere in Turkey.
