FETÖ and its U.S.-based leader, Fetullah Gülen, are accused of orchestrating the defeated coup of July 15, 2016, which left 251 people killed and nearly 2,200 injured in Turkey.
Ankara also accuses FETÖ of being behind a long-running campaign to overthrow the state through the infiltration of Turkish institutions, particularly the military, police and judiciary.
