Turkish attorneys seek arrest of US officers in Incirlik
[PRESSTV] A group of pro-government attorneys in The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire....
has petitioned a court to arrest nearly a dozen of American officers at the strategic Incirlik Air Base over alleged ties to US-based opposition figure Fethullah Gülen
... a Turkish preacher living in Pennsylvania whom the current govt of Turkey considers responsible for all the ills afflicting Turkey and possibly the entire world...
, whom the Ottoman Turkish government accuses of having criminal masterminded a failed coup attempt in 2016.
Right. The entire United States Air Force has ties to some holy man they've never heard of.
Lawyers with the legal Association for Social Justice and Aid, an NGO that includes prominent supporters of Ottoman Turkish President Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdogan the First
... Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey...
, filed the petition with the Adana Chief Public Prosecutor’s Office last week, media reported on Wednesday.

They asked in their petition for the arrest of "the commanders of the US Air Force who are the superiors of the soldiers based at Incirlik" ‐ identified with their full names in the 60-page criminal complaint ‐ for their alleged attempts to "destroy the constitutional order, prevent partially or fully the Ottoman Turkish government from exercising its authority and endangering the illusory sovereignty of Ottoman Turkish state."

The group also called on Ankara to halt the US military flights from the base and execute a search warrant at the facility to look for potential additional evidence.

The Ottoman Turkish government has not acted on any of the allegations.

The US Air Force said it was aware of the legal petition but referred all questions to the Ottoman Turkish government for comment.

"We continue to carry out our mission here at Incirlik Air Base, and we are proud of the relationship we have with our Ottoman Turkish military partners," said Air Force Capt. Amanda Herman, spokeswoman for the base, on Wednesday.
