istanbul, turkey - Istanbul mayor's diploma revoked 5 days before primaries, challenging Erdogan in upcoming elections. Legal battle ensues.

Istanbul Mayor's Diploma Revoked

The popular Istanbul mayor Ekrem Imamoglu faces diploma controversy as university invalidates his 35-year-old degree.

Challenging Erdogan

  • Imamoglu, the main opposition candidate, seen as Erdogan's strongest rival in polls.
  • University decision comes days before CHP primaries where Imamoglu was the sole candidate.

Legal Battle

Having a university diploma is a requirement for presidential candidacy in Turkey. Imamoglu plans to appeal the decision but fears judicial interference.

Previous Challenges

Imamoglu faced obstacles in becoming a presidential candidate before. After winning Istanbul's mayoral elections, a rerun was ordered due to AKP's challenge. Despite subsequent victory, he was sentenced to prison in 2022.
