Turkey court acquits 103 ex-admirals accused of ‘coup’

Istanbul (AFP) Dec 20, 2022

A Turkish court on Tuesday acquitted 103 retired admirals whom President Recep Tayyip Erdogan accused last year of eyeing a “coup”, state media reported.

They appeared in court charged with “crimes against the security of the state and the constitutional order” after they signed an open letter in April 2021 in support of a treaty aimed at demilitarising the Black Sea.
