Turkish regime arrests 21 suspects for alleged links to 2016 coup

At least 21 suspects were arrested in Turkey for alleged links to the Fetullah Organization, the group that was accused of being behind the 2016 defeated coup, a security source said on Thursday.

Prosecutors in the northwestern Sakarya province have issued arrest warrants for 29 suspects, said the source, who asked not to be named due to restrictions on speaking to the media.

Anti-terror police teams have apprehended 21 of the suspects in operations in 10 different provinces, with efforts on to track down the remaining ones, the source added, according to Anadolu Agency.
