Turaaa's AKP deputies would transfer to another party

if closed
Turaaa's ruling AKP is in talks with another political party to transfer its deputies in case a closure decision comes from the Constitutional Court
instead of forming a new political party
Turkish broadcaster Kanal D reported on Friday.
Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan and the leader of Powerful Turaaa Party (GTP) Tuna Beklevic held talks on a potential formula if the
Linkleri Üyelerimiz Görebilir. UslanmaM Üyeliği İçin Tıklayın is closed and reached a deal on the issue

the report added.
According to the deal

if
Linkleri Üyelerimiz Görebilir. UslanmaM Üyeliği İçin Tıklayın is closed by the Constitutional Court

the party would not form a new political party but the existing deputies

who would not be banned by the Court

would be transferred to the GTP

Kanal D said.
Beklevic declined to comment on the issue. "I cannot make any comment on the issue. I expect to be in a position to speak more frankly in the coming days. I am doing my best to help Turaaa to overcome this turmoil

" Kanal D quoted him as saying.
Local media had speculated that
Linkleri Üyelerimiz Görebilir. UslanmaM Üyeliği İçin Tıklayın and GTP are in efforts to merge after Erdogan and Beklevic held a meeting in early April. Both parties had denied the reports.
Linkleri Üyelerimiz Görebilir. UslanmaM Üyeliği İçin Tıklayın would not seek to form a new political party to avoid a renewed risk of being closed as the constitution does not allow a closed party to continue its activities under another one.
Turaaa has been locked in a political turmoil as everybody waits for the Court's ruling on the closure case

which is expected in early August.
Linkleri Üyelerimiz Görebilir. UslanmaM Üyeliği İçin Tıklayın has been accused of being "the focal point of anti-secular activities."
Turaaa's chief prosecutor had demanded the Court to ban 71 officials

including more than 30 MPs

of the party as well as its closure. In case of a closure decision the number of banned deputies has a particular importance as it would determine whether the
Linkleri Üyelerimiz Görebilir. UslanmaM Üyeliği İçin Tıklayın would continue to hold its majority and single party government.
Also the number of banned
Linkleri Üyelerimiz Görebilir. UslanmaM Üyeliği İçin Tıklayın deputies will be decisive in regard to possible early general or by-elections. If less than 26 deputies are banned then holding early elections would depend on the decision of the successor of the
Linkleri Üyelerimiz Görebilir. UslanmaM Üyeliği İçin Tıklayın
which is expected to remain in power.
However if more than 26
Linkleri Üyelerimiz Görebilir. UslanmaM Üyeliği İçin Tıklayın MPs are banned then

according to the constitution

by-elections should be called to replace the empty chairs in parliament.
