The corruption investigation against Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality continues. Hopa Mayor Utku Cihan will be at Hopa Courthouse to give testimony regarding his time in the Transportation Department.

Cihan will share information related to his tenure as the Transportation Department Head. This situation is likely to further energize the political atmosphere in Istanbul.

The Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's Office is investigating claims that some suspects who benefited from the effective remorse provisions had their statements taken under pressure. This could affect the course of the investigation.

This issue was also brought up in the IBB Council. AK Party Group Vice President Faruk Gökkuş emphasized the need for the judiciary to do its job and highlighted the seriousness of the corruption allegations.
