Fifteen people including two former army officers were jailed for life on Friday for membership of a terrorist group which organized last year’s defeated coup attempt.
Brig. Gen. Ekrem Caglar and former gendarmerie commander Murat Orhan, who were dismissed from the military in the wake of the coup bid, were among the 15 members of the Fetullah Terrorist Organization (FETO) who received life sentences on the charge of attempting to overthrow the constitutional order by using violence.
FETO and its U.S.-based leader Fetullah Gulen orchestrated the July 15 coup attempt that left 250 people martyred and nearly 2,200 injured.
