A Turkish court effectively ousted the main opposition leader, Ozgur Ozel, annulling the 2023 party congress that elected him chairman in a ruling that dealt a blow to President Tayyip Erdogan's challengers and hit financial markets.   The appeals court annulled the congress over irregularities and ruled that former Republican People's Party Chairman Kemal Kilicdaroglu — a divisive figure within the party who lost to Erdogan in an election earlier in 2023 — should replace his successor Ozel.   The case was seen as a test of Turkey's shaky balance between democracy and autocracy, and the ruling may throw the opposition into further disarray and possible infighting.   ✍️ Read more from Huseyin Hayatsever and Ece Toksabay: https://reut.rs/4nIp7qp
