It seems like you haven’t read the court cases against Imamoglu and you don’t know much about how widespread corruption is in Turkey (it’s pretty much legal at this point) to the point where Erdogan runs the country like a mafia head. In such a country “corruption cases” are just tools of getting rid of opponents hence political. Please contact exiled journalists like Cevheri Guven and Erk Acarer. You can also talk to political analysts like Berk Esen. They will have no problem speaking to you.

As I said in the piece, I haven't read the cases yet and reserve judgment until I have. As for corruption, sure, but there is corruption everywhere. If you have a connection with a journalist or figure that would be willing to discuss please feel free to contact me directly!
