Turkey continues its pursuit of FETÖ’s high-level administrators, who fled abroad after the treacherous July 15 coup attempt, live luxuriously under the protection of foreign intelligence services, and conduct smear propaganda against Turkey.
Details of the new extradition requests, spanning from the USA to South Africa and Belgium to Sweden, have emerged. These requests have been updated from scratch through the coordination of the Ministry of Justice and intelligence units.
The files of former special authorities who used judicial power for terrorist purposes, the traitors waiting for orders in NATO bases on the night of the coup, and the continent imams who corporateized money collected as ‘aid funds’ for the organization have surfaced again.

It was determined that Yalınalp, who left the NATO base in Germany where he served and sought asylum from German authorities after Ankara's 'Return to Country' order immediately after the coup, was part of a 'payphone pool' during his time in Turkey. According to witness statements, Yalınalp frequently traveled to Pennsylvania to meet the ringleader and directed crypto officers within the TSK.
