Arrest warrants released for 114 FETO-linked suspects in an Ankara-based operation

The arrest warrants were issued as part of a probe into the group’s infiltration of the Gendarmerie General Command and civil administration.

Police forces also conducted simultaneous operations in many locations and detained multiple suspects, security sources said.

Since May 2016, Turkey has classified the FETO organization as a terrorist organization under the assigned names Fethullahist Terrorist Organization and Parallel State Structure. 

After the failed coup attempt in 2016, the government of Turkey blamed the group for the coup and authorities have arrested thousands of soldiers and judges who have links to the organization. (ILKHA)
