The Turkish Interior Ministry announced on Tuesday that it had opened an investigation into Istanbul Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu for allegedly disrespecting an Ottoman sultan’s tomb, Turkish news outlet Ahval reported.
The city’s mayor visited the mausoleum of Sultan Mehmed II last year as part of the commemoration festivities for the 567th anniversary of the Turkish conquest of Constantinople, the outlet noted. Mehmed II was Sultan of the Ottoman Empire from 1444-1446 and again from 1451-1481. His most significant accomplishment was the conquest of Constantinople in 1453, the only successful siege of the city since its foundation more than 1,000 years prior. Thereafter, he was known as Mehmed the Conqueror.
