ANKARA: Some 785 members of Turkish labour ministry have been sacked for ties to the US-based cleric who Ankara blames for orchestrating a failed coup in July, Turkish labour minister said on Thursday.
Mehmet Muezzinoglu made the comment at a meeting with reporters in the capital, Ankara. Some 100,000 people in the military, civil service, police and judiciary have been sacked or suspended following the failed July 15 coup attempt, when a group of rogue soldiers attempted to topple the government.
