A court in Turkey has suspended the chairman and members of the board of the CHP in Istanbul.

On September 2, a court in Turkey ordered the dismissal of the head and other board members of the Republican People's Party (CHP) in Istanbul. This was reported on September 7 by the newspaper Sözcü, citing a statement made by the country's Foreign Minister Ali Yerlikaya.

"By a temporary decision of the 45th Civil Court of First Instance of Istanbul dated September 2, 2025, the chairman and members of the Board of the NRP in Istanbul were suspended from their duties as a precautionary measure, and an interim council was appointed in their place," the publication says.

The minister added that an attempt to ignore a court ruling or a call from party supporters to take to the streets to protest would entail "drastic measures" from the authorities.
