At least 18 judges and prosecutors were suspended over links to Fetullah Terrorist Organization (FETÖ), the group behind the 2016 defeated coup, Turkey’s top judiciary council said on Friday.
Turkey’s Council of Judges and Prosecutors’ 2nd Chamber said that the suspects were suspended until an inquiry about their links to FETÖ concluded.
FETÖ and its U.S.-based leader Fetullah Gulen orchestrated the defeated coup of July 15, 2016, which left 251 people martyred and nearly 2,200 injured.
Turkey accuses FETÖ of being behind a long-running campaign to overthrow the state through the infiltration of Turkish institutions, particularly the military, police and judiciary.
