Istanbul mayor Imamoglu denies terrorism charges, court document shows — Reuters

Detained Istanbul Mayor Ekrem Imamoglu has denied terrorism charges brought against him, according to a court document seen by Reuters on Saturday, after he was detained on Wednesday for alleged corruption and terrorism.

"I see today during my interrogation that I and my colleagues are faced with unimaginable accusations and slanders," Imamoglu said in his defence during a hearing, the document showed.
