After his third night in custody, Istanbul Mayor Ekrem Imamoglu was to appear before prosecutors Saturday, just hours after hundreds of thousands hit the streets across Turkey in a massive show of defiance. It was the third straight night that protesters had rallied against the arrest of Imamoglu – the biggest political rival of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, whose arrest early Wednesday sparked Turkey’s biggest street protests in more than a decade.
