Admirals Nazmi Ekici (L) and Hayrettin Ä°mren.

A Turkish court sentenced 23 naval officers, including dismissed admirals Hayrettin İmren and Nazmi Ekici, to aggravated life without the chance of parole, while 13 officers were given life in prison by the same court on Thursday over their alleged role in a controversial coup attempt on July 15, 2016 and their alleged links to the Gülen movement.

According to a report by Turkey’s state-run Anadolu news agency on Thursday, the Kocaeli 5th High Criminal Court held the trial of 55 defendants at Kocaeli Prison, 19 of whom were handed down sentences of unspecified duration.

Hundreds of thousands of people in Turkey have been the subject of legal proceedings in the last two years on charges of membership in the Gülen movement since a coup attempt on July 15, 2016, a Turkish Justice Ministry official told a symposium on July 19, 2018.

Mustapha Kemal , the Ottoman Commander at Gallipoli,
brought Turkey out of the dark ages in 1921.
Now their Military allows itself to be urinated on by a
hard left scum-bag such as Erdogan.
What the hell is going on in Turkey?????
