Gulen on His Arrest Warrant

uapress.info

A court in Turkey has issued a formal warrant for the arrest of Fethullah Gulen, the US-based Turkish Muslim religious leader who the government accuses of being behind the failed July 15 coup attempt that left more than 270 people dead, Aljazeera reports.

For his part, Gulen, who has denied the government's accusations, denounced the arrest warrant.

"It is well-documented that the Turkish court system is without judicial independence, so this warrant is yet another example of President Erdogan's drive for authoritarianism and away from democracy," he said in a statement on Thursday.
