13 suspects detained in 7 provinces over allegations of interference in voting at CHP Congress

As part of an investigation into allegations that delegates' voting intentions were interfered with at the CHP's 38th Ordinary Congress, 13 suspects were detained across 7 separate provinces. The development was announced by TRT Haber.

The investigation was launched following complaints that delegates faced pressure and direction during the congress proceedings, according to reports. The simultaneous conduct of detention operations across multiple provinces indicates that the investigation spans a wide geographic area. The provinces where the detentions took place and the identities of the suspects have not yet been shared with the public.

The CHP held elections for its general leadership and party bodies at the 38th Ordinary Congress, which was completed in recent days. The congress process occupied a prominent place on the public agenda due to internal disputes and tensions between different factions.

The prosecutor's office has not yet issued an official statement regarding the specific charges against the suspects in detention or the scope of the investigation. Developments on the matter are being monitored.
