Corruption Allegations and Operations Against CHP Mayors

In Turkey, CHP mayors are facing corruption allegations. Some mayors are switching to AKP, leading to halted investigations.
For instance, Umut Yılmaz, the Mayor of Şehitkamil in Gaziantep, came under scrutiny for corruption allegations shortly after being elected from CHP. However, these allegations were shelved after he joined AKP.
The recent operation against Bayrampaşa Municipality is another example of the double standards applied against CHP mayors. 44 individuals were detained, and an investigation was launched.
CHP Deputy Chairman Gökan Zeybek described these operations as 'a desperate government's desk game'. CHP emphasized that it will continue to defend the public will.
Finally, the arrest of the Mayor of Beykoz has brought corruption allegations within CHP back to the forefront. This situation has sparked discussions about the future of the party.
