Baku, Azerbaijan, May 12
By Rufiz Hafizoglu - Trend:
A criminal case may be initiated against the leader of the Turkish opposition Republican People's Party (CHP) Kemal Kilicdaroglu, the country's TV channel TRT Haber reported May 12.
The reason for Kilicdaroglu's criminal prosecution may be his latest statement regarding Turkey's possible transition from parliamentary form of government to a presidential one.
This will be possible only through bloodshed, Kilicdaroglu said.
These words by the opposition leader in Turkey were regarded as an attempt to call to a civil confrontation in the country.
Earlier, a source in Turkish presidential administration told Trend that adoption of a new constitution is very important for Turkey.
The source also said that it is necessary, first of all, that the new constitution gets vote of the Turkish parliament. If the parliament isn't able to adopt a new constitution through a voting, there will be a national referendum, the source said.
