Atalay, who was stripped of his immunity earlier this year, has been a focal point of political tensions.

The constitutional court recently overturned the decision to oust him, leading to heated exchanges between the ruling party and opposition members.

The confrontation escalated when former footballer and AKP lawmaker Alpay Ozalan physically attacked TIP member Ahmet Sik, leading to a brawl that left at least two opposition MPs injured.
