CHP’s Justice March Ends With A Mass Rally In Istanbul

Hundreds of thousands of people have gathered in Istanbul at the end of a 450km justice march against the government of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

Opposition and protest leader Kemal Kilicdaroglu criticised the wave of arrests and imprisonments that followed last year’s failed coup.

Large numbers have joined the march since it began in Ankara on 15 June. Kemal Kilicdaroglu launched the march after one of his MPs, Enis Berberoglu, was arrested for allegedly leaking documents purporting to show that the government was arming jihadists in Syria.

The rally was the biggest show of defiance against President Erdogan since the Gezi Park protests four years ago.
