Where reports differ

Opposition-leaning press BirGün described the management making the announcement as the "absolute nullity management" and "an MYK made up of unelected members," and reminded readers that police had intervened at the party headquarters after the ruling.
Pro-government press A Haber reported on the agenda through the postponement to October 21 of the criminal case related to CHP's 38th Ordinary Congress and the delegate allegations in the indictment; it also gave space to criticism from Yenilik Partisi Chairman Öztürk Yılmaz regarding the name-similarity dispute.
