Türkiye seized the construction company co-owned by detained Istanbul Mayor Ekrem Imamoglu, the Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's office said.
Türkiye detained Imamoglu on Wednesday on charges such as graft and aiding a terrorist group, a step the main opposition party criticized as a "coup attempt against the next president".
In a statement late on Wednesday, the prosecutor's office said control of Imamoglu Construction, Trade and Industry was taken over by a criminal court of peace, based on financial crime investigation reports.
