ISTANBUL—Turkish police have detained 47 people in an operation targeting alleged supporters within the army of a network accused by Ankara of orchestrating a failed military coup two years ago, private broadcaster CNN Turk said on Saturday.
The operation, which began on Tuesday, targeted 124 people accused of being followers of exiled rival Islamic preacher Fethullah Gulen who has lived in Pennsylvania in the United States since 1999, CNN Turk said.
