The report, titled “FETO- An as an international threat,” unveils the terror group’s ongoing activities overseas and reveals its overseas structure and new strategies
The ringleader of the Fetullah Tterror Oorganization (FETO), Fetullah Gulen, may seek asylum in Egypt, according to a report prepared by the Turkish Police Academy.
The report, titled “FETO- An as an international threat,” unveils the terror group’s ongoing activities overseas and reveals its overseas structure and new strategies.
FETO and its U.S.-based leader Fetullah Gulen orchestrated the defeated coup of July 15, 2016 in Turkey, which left 251 people martyred and nearly 2,200 injured.
“Claims that FETO ringleader Gulen might seek asylum in Egypt in case he was deported from the U.S. are not unfounded,” the report says.
The report includes a history of the terror group and its activities, goals and characteristics, dedicating a long chapter to the group’s actions abroad.
“In a bid to spread its activities in across Middle Eastern countries, FETO effectively used the “moderate Islam” label effectively as a vessel,” according to the report.
“As a result of years of FETO activities in Egypt, the terror group has strong ties to Egyptian intelligence.”
FETO and its U.S.-based leader Fetullah Gulen serve the U.S. interests in Russia, the Balkans, Eurasia, Caucasus and the Middle East, the report added.
In addition to numerous FETO-linked businesses that pour millions of dollars into the cult’s reserves across the U.S., especially its charter school network with 60,000 students provides it an annual revenue stream of $500 million that funds the terror group’s operations.
FETO uses its accumulated human and financial resources in its schools and businesses to exercise power illegally in the form of a “parallel state” or shadow governments, stated the report.
FETO and its U.S.-based leader Fetullah Gulen orchestrated the defeated coup of July 15, 2016 in Turkey, which left 251 people martyred and nearly 2,200 injured.
FETO is behind a long-running campaign to overthrow the state through the infiltration of Turkish institutions, particularly the military, police, and judiciary.
FETO has a considerable presence abroad, including private schools which serve as a revenue stream for the terror group.
Since the defeated coup in 2016 dozens of countries — including Iraq, Senegal, Afghanistan and Pakistan — have woken up to the FETO threat and either closed down, changed ownership, or transferred FETO-affiliated schools to the Turkish Maarif Foundation.
Turkey established the foundation to take over the administration of overseas schools linked to FETO. It also establishes schools and education centers abroad.
