CHP Chairman Özgür Özel strongly responded to allegations against Ekrem İmamoğlu. Özel denied claims that İmamoğlu's son Selim transferred money abroad.

Özel stated, "Today, our students took their university entrance exams. I wish all students success." He also mentioned that rallies will continue until results are achieved.

Özel criticized the arrest of Fatih Keleş and the threats against families, stating, "This is unacceptable legally, morally, and religiously."

Özgür Özel emphasized that, "This oppression will not be appreciated by the nation; it will be punished." He stressed the need to support İmamoğlu.

Özel remarked, "If I believe İmamoğlu will defeat Erdoğan, then he believes it a thousand times more," indicating that Turkey is facing a coup attempt.
