An important development occurred in the case known as 'Fool Case' involving Istanbul Mayor Ekrem Imamoğlu. The appellate court upheld the prison sentence given to Imamoğlu.

Imamoğlu received a sentence of 2 years and 7 months in prison and a political ban for 4 years. However, this sentence was updated to 1 year and 7 months. His lawyer announced that they would appeal the decision.

Imamoğlu's lawyer, Kemal Polat, stated that the decision is not yet finalized and will be taken to the Supreme Court. This process could affect Imamoğlu's political career.

Imamoğlu emphasized in his statements that this case is not a trial but a punishment. He stated that he will continue to fight for the future of Istanbul.

Imamoğlu's situation may also affect the political atmosphere in Turkey. These developments are attracting the attention of the public and political parties.
