ANKARA (Sputnik) — The Turkish authorities believe that the Fethullahist Terrorist Organization (FETO)/Parallel State Structure (PDY), allegedly run by Gulen and designated as a terrorist organization by the country, played a key role in the recent coup attempt.
"Turkish Airlines made a decision to rescind contracts with 211 employees on July 22. The reasons include non-compliance, inefficiency, incompetence as well as support of the terrorist organization FETO," the company said in a statement.
Gulen is wanted in Turkey on charges including treason, although he denies any wrongdoing.
