Ankara (Monitoring Desk): A major commotion erupted in the Turkish Parliament following the appointment of Akın Garloğlu as Justice Minister.
Sources reported that opposition parties protested the nomination, calling it controversial, which led to physical scuffles among some lawmakers. The opposition argues that Garloğlu, as former Chief Prosecutor, led crackdowns against opposition figures, making his appointment politically biased.
Government members defended President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s decision, stating that Garloğlu has fulfilled his legal responsibilities in accordance with the constitution.
