The Mayor of Istanbul, who was due to be selected as a presidential candidate for the opposition Republican People's Party (CHP) during a primary election today, was jailed on corruption charges following his detention earlier this week. He was among at least 100 politicians, business leaders and journalists detained as part of investigations into corruption and support for terrorism, according to Turkish authorities. Critics called the arrests politically motivated. Photo by Efekan Akyuz/ABACAPRESS.COM
