Germany has dropped an espionage investigation into Turkish imams, the Federal Prosecutor's Office said Wednesday, APA reports quoting Anadolu Agency.

The probe into 19 imams focused on their alleged role against suspected supporters of the Fetullah Terrorist Organization (FETO) in Germany. FETO orchestrated last year’s coup attempt in Turkey that led to the deaths of 250 people.

The prosecutor’s office said the inquiry had been dropped due to a lack of evidence and because seven of the imams had left the country.
