Turkey’s Justice Ministry has sent to the US its first official provisional arrest request for Fetullah Gulen, who is accused of leading the failed July coup, Anadolu news agency quoted ministry sources as saying.
The sources who spoke on condition of anonymity, due to restrictions on speaking to the media, said the written official request claimed that the July 15 coup attempt was carried out under “his command and control”.
The letter stated that the coup attempt was carried out with the instructions of U.S.-based preacher Fetullah Gulen, who has been living in self-imposed exile in Pennsylvania since 1999.
“This person who ordered the July 15, 2016 bloody coup and committed many other crimes has been sought for arrest”, the official request said.
