The latest developments in Ekrem İmamoğlu's expert witness case are being followed with excitement. The trial has been postponed to September 26.

On January 27, İmamoğlu criticized the investigations against him during a press conference, claiming that the same expert witness was repeatedly assigned. He is facing charges of 'attempting to influence an expert witness and fair trial.'

İmamoğlu and his lawyers did not attend the hearing in Silivri. The change of the trial location and the last-minute notification disturbed İmamoğlu.

Following İmamoğlu's statements, the Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's Office initiated an investigation. The indictment states that İmamoğlu publicly targeted the expert witness, creating a negative public perception.

İmamoğlu will appear before the judge on June 12. This trial seems likely to impact the political atmosphere in Istanbul.
