Halk TV

Halk TV is a Turkish Free-to-air nationwide TV channel established in 2005. It is known for its relationship with the Republican People's Party, although the previous links were cut off in 2011 under the new CHP leader Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu. The Gezi Park protests brought Halk TV into the spotlight as one of the few Turkish television channels to broadcast live coverage of the events. Because of this the media regulator, the Radio and Television Supreme Council, imposed a fine on Halk TV for "harming the physical, moral and mental development of children and young people". In June 2025, the Turkish Attorney General issued an arrest warrant against London based Cafer Mahiroğlu.
