A Turkish court on May 21 annulled the 2023 CHP congress results citing irregularities and reinstated Kemal Kilicdaroglu as party chairman. On May 24, Ankara’s governor ordered eviction of occupants from CHP headquarters, after which riot police fired tear gas and forced entry. Ozgur Ozel condemned the ruling as a judicial coup and stated he would pursue legal appeals while remaining in the building.
