The Chief Public Prosecutor’s Office in Istanbul issued arrest warrants for the suspects who allegedly used ByLock, an encrypted cellphone application used by coup-plotters.
Teachers and lawyers were among the suspects sought with warrants.
So far, twenty-seven suspects were arrested in simultaneous counter-terror operations across nine provinces.
Turkish police continue operations to nab the others suspects.
According to the Turkish government, the FETO and its U.S.-based leader Fetullah Gulen orchestrated the defeated coup of July 15, 2016, which left 251 people martyred and nearly 2,200 injured.
Ankara also accuses FETO of being behind a long-running campaign to overthrow the state through the infiltration of Turkish institutions, particularly the military, police, and judiciary.
