- Story Text:Several hundred students clashed with police in Ankara on Wednesday (March 19) as they protested the detention of Istanbul Mayor Ekrem Imamoglu.
Police used pepper spray to disperse the students of the Middle East Technical University (METU), at times clashing with them.
Turkey detained Istanbul mayor Ekrem Imamoglu, the main rival of President Tayyip Erdogan, on charges of corruption and aiding a terrorist group in what the main opposition party on Wednesday called "a coup against our next president."
