Turkish security forces arrested 34 for suspected FETÖ terror ties

MojNews- Turkish police arrested ۳۴ suspects on Monday over links to the Fetullah Terrorist Organization ( FETO ), the group behind the ۲۰۱۶ defeated coup attempt, security sources said.

The arrests on charges of using ByLock, the terror group’s encrypted smartphone messaging app, came after prosecutors in the capital Ankara issued arrest warrants for ۴۶ suspects.

Police continue seeking the remaining suspects.

FETÖ and its U.S.-based leader Fetullah Gulen orchestrated the defeated coup on July ۱۵, ۲۰۱۶, which left ۲۵۱ people killed and nearly ۲,۲۰۰ injured.

Ankara also accuses FETÖ of being behind a long-running campaign to overthrow the state through the infiltration of Turkish institutions, particularly the military, police, and judiciary.
