A holiday photo allegedly shared by Selim İmamoğlu, the son of Ekrem İmamoğlu, who was suspended from his post as the President of the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality (IMM) after being sent to prison in the corruption investigation against the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality (IMM), caused wide repercussions on social media.
In the holiday photo recorded on a yacht, the Marshall Islands flag, which is described as the "easy flag" in the maritime industry and provides various advantages, especially tax exemptions and flexible inspection standards, was seen flying on the yacht.
A statement came from Selim İmamoğlu regarding the photo frame that created great controversy in the shadow of the current economic crisis and ongoing political polemics in Türkiye.
Stating that he will initiate legal proceedings regarding the allegations in his statement on his social media account, Selim İmamoğlu said, "I went to Silivri this morning and visited my father. His resilience and morale are very good. After my visit to my father, I came to the laboratory. As you will appreciate, it is quite difficult to do a master's degree in Physics at ITU. Especially these days, I am spending a lot of time on my thesis. While doing measurements on the thesis, I took a short break and at that time I came across an interesting post about me. There is no need to explain, but my lawyers initiated the legal initiative. "They will. Also, I drink tea plain and unsweetened, not with lemon. Best regards..."
