3 FETO-linked suspects nabbed near Turkey-Greece border

According to security sources, Turkish security forces arrested 3 persons trying to cross into Greece illegally in the forbidden military zone. As a result of the investigation, it was determined that the captured persons are members of the FETO organization.

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)
