Ekrem İmamoğlu has remained in Turkish custody since his March 2025 detention and subsequent arrest on corruption, bribery, extortion, and related charges that prosecutors estimate could carry sentences exceeding 2,000 years. Additional counts, including political espionage and threats against officials, have been filed during ongoing proceedings, with the main trial advancing through 2026 hearings at the Silivri complex. As Istanbul’s opposition mayor and a leading CHP figure viewed as a potential presidential challenger, İmamoğlu faces multiple parallel cases amid broader actions targeting party officials. No acquittals, sentence reductions, or procedural releases have occurred by mid-2026, sustaining the view among traders that authorities intend to keep him detained through the year.
