Police have carried out regular sweeps against alleged supporters of the preacher 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...since the coup attempt of July 2016, in which 250 people were killed. Gulen denies involvement.
In the latest operation, in Istanbul and 31 other provinces, police have so far detained 74 people, Anadolu said.
The 103 suspects, all on active service, include colonels and lieutenant colonels, it said, adding that an investigation had shown they had communicated over fixed-line and pay telephones.
Authorities say members of the alleged Gulen network communicated via payphones.
