Çırağan incident, also known as the Çırağan raid, was a failed coup attempt that took place on May 20, 1878 by a group of dissident people led by Ali Suavi to replace Ottoman sultan Abdul Hamid II with his brother Murat V who was held in Çırağan Palace. [1]

Chronology of events

Ali Suavi, one of Abdulhamid's opponents, and a group of approximately 150 people went to Çırağan Palace by boat and neutralized the palace guards. The rebels reached the section where Murad V was, but since Murad V was not in a healthy state of mind, he became afraid and refused to go with the rebels. As a result, Ali Suavi could not convince the former sultan.

Meanwhile, the soldiers under the command of Beşiktaş Guard Yedisekiz Hasan Pasha arrived at the scene and killed sixty of the rebels. Hasan Pasha also killed Ali Suavi by hitting his head with a thick stick and thus ending the revolution attempt. [2]

Aftermath

After the incident, Abdul Hamid II became increasingly paranoid about the possibility of being overthrown, while his brother Murad V ceased to be a viable rival. Feeling threatened, Abdul Hamid II established the Ottoman secret police two years later. The primary task of its members was to gather information and spy on dissident groups operating both inside and outside the empire. [3]
