Background
Mass protests erupted on March 19 after Imamoglu’s arrest, leading the Turkish government to impose a four-day ban on public gatherings, restrict traffic in city centers, and suspend metro services in some areas.
Protests have since spread to Ankara, Izmir, and other major cities, with tensions continuing to rise. Imamoglu is considered a key opposition leader and potential challenger to President Erdoğan in the upcoming elections.
The Kazakh Embassy continues to monitor the situation and urges citizens to remain calm and stay in contact with consular offices.
