11 people detained for supporting a shopping boycott the previous day. The Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor’s Office issued arrest warrants for 16 suspects. Large-scale anti-government protests began last month after the jailing of Istanbul’s opposition Mayor Ekrem Imamoglu. The government has not responded to the allegations but the police issued a statement on Thursday denying claims that women had been sexually assaulted in custody as vile slanders.
