0:17Now PlayingThousands of supporters of Istanbul's mayor gathered outside the city's hall Wednesday night, hours after the arrest of Ekrem Imamoglu. Imamoglu, a popular opposition leader and key rival of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, and several other prominent figures were detained as part of investigations into alleged corruption and terror links.
Imamoglu was arrested after a dawn raid on his residence on Wednesday. Several other prominent figures, including two district mayors, were also detained. The detention of the popular opposition leader deepened concerns over democracy and sparked protests in Istanbul and elsewhere, despite a four-day ban on demonstrations in the city and road closures.
Several people were detained following a student protest in the capital, Ankara, that continued into the night.
