Jailed opposition mayor in İstanbul ordered released to house arrest after 90 days

Üsküdar, Türkiye ·

A Turkish court on Thursday ordered Sinem Dedetaş, the suspended opposition mayor of Üsküdar, released to house arrest after 90 days in pretrial detention on corruption charges, her lawyer announced. The decision came on Turkey's Republic Day, hours after she said she was marking the holiday alone.

Since 2025, Turkish authorities have detained a number of mayors from the main opposition CHP on corruption charges, which the party says are politically motivated.
