Turkish opposition leader and founder of the Hizmet movement, Fethullah Gülen, has died in the United States at the age of 83, reports Hürriyet.
Gülen was considered one of the main opponents of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. Following the failed coup attempt in 2016, he and his movement were accused of orchestrating the coup. Turkish authorities also said that Gülen’s supporters had infiltrated key state institutions, including the military, police, judiciary, and ministries.
During the coup attempt on the night of July 16, 2016, airstrikes targeted Istanbul and Ankara, and tanks were deployed to the streets. As a result of these events, 161 people were killed, and another 1,440 were injured.
A Turkish court sentenced 74 individuals to life imprisonment for their involvement in the coup attempt. Ankara has consistently demanded Gülen’s extradition from the United States, accusing the US government of supporting his organization, FETO.
