Separately, arrest warrants were out for 52 FETO suspects in southern Adana province on the same charges.

Security forces launched simultaneous operations in 20 provinces to nab the suspects.

FETO and its US-based leader Fetullah Gulen orchestrated the defeated coup of July 15, 2016, which left 251 people martyred and nearly 2,200 injured.

Ankara also accuses FETO of being behind a long-running campaign to overthrow the state through the infiltration of Turkish institutions, particularly the military, police, and judiciary.
