Dogan: Turkey detains 51 teachers over suspected links to coup
2017-11-21
[Ynet] Ottoman Turkish authorities on Monday issued arrest warrants for 107 teachers for suspected ties to the US-based holy man Ankara blames for orchestrating last year's coup, the Dogan news agency said.

Fifty-one of the teachers were detained in Ankara after the local prosecutor issued the warrants, Dogan said, adding that operations continued to round-up the remaining teachers.

The teachers were previously suspended from their jobs as part of the ongoing crackdown that followed the attempted coup in July 2016, it said.
