Turkey sends dossiers to US over 'coup-linked' Gulen

Published on: 

Turkey’s PM said on Tuesday his Government had sent four files to the United States, as Ankara seeks the extradition of US-based preacher Fethullah Gulen over his alleged links to Friday’s attempted coup.

“We have sent four dossiers to the United States for the extradition of the terrorist chief. We will present them with more evidence than they want,” Binali Yildirim told parliament.

Gulen has lived in self-imposed exile in the United States since 1999 and has denied any involvement in the putsch.
