Istanbul mayor Imamoglu’s degree revoked over non-recognition of Cyprus uni

Istanbul mayor Ekrem Imamoglu’s degree was on Tuesday revoked by Istanbul University over a report which found that the university in northern Cyprus at which he began his studies before transferring to Istanbul was not adequately recognised.

Imamoglu was one of 28 people to have his degree revoked, with the university writing that it had revoked his degree on the strength of a report written by Turkey’s higher education council
