Turkey's main opposition party said on Sunday, June 24, they have received complaints of voting irregularities, particularly in the mainly Kurdish southeast.

The leader of the main opposition CHP party, Kemal Kilicdaroglu, said after voting in Ankara that civil servants must 'fulfil their duties' in the country's snap presidential and parliamentary elections.

CHP spokesman Bulent Tezcan claimed armed people were wandering the streets of southeast district of Suruc where three people were killed on June 14 after a fight broke out between members of the ruling AK Parties and local shopkeepers.

Election observers from the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) visited a polling station in Ankara. Head of the mission, Audrey Glover, said the group will monitor all aspects of the voting.

More than 56 million people were registered to vote at 180,000 ballot boxes across Turkey.
