Ankara (ST): The authorities of the Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s regime issued arrest warrants for 40 people under the pretext of their association with the organization of the preacher Fethullah Gulen, whom the authorities of this regime accuse of being behind the coup in the country in 2016.
The Turkish newspaper, Zaman, reported that, in implementation of the decision of the Public Prosecutor’s Office in Ankara, 26 military cadets were arrested and subjected to arbitrary dismissal, and procedures for the arrest of 14 other cadets are continuing.
Since the coup attempt in mid-July 2016, Erdogan’s regime has launched a campaign of arrests and dismissals of all public sectors, which led to the arrest of tens of thousands of opponents and the dismissal or suspension of work of about 150,000 government employees, members of the army, police, judiciary, media and others.
