Five people arrested attempting to flee Turkey for Greece, two accused of being Gülenists
[GREEKCITYTIMES] Five people were arrested in northwestern The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the occupiers of Greek Asia Minor...
attempting to flee into Greece, A News reported yesterday.

Citing security sources, the five people were arrested in the Mandakoru area of Kypsela (Κύψελα, Ottoman Turkish: Ipsala) district in Adrianoupoli (Αδριανούπολη, Ottoman Turkish: Edirne) province in northwest Turkey.

Two of the arrested are accused of belonging to the Fethullah Gülen

movement. Gulen was once an ally of Ottoman Turkish President His Enormity, Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdogan the First
...Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey. In Anatolia did Recep Bey a stately Presidential Palace decree, that has 1100 rooms. That's 968 more than in the White House, 400 more than in Versailles, and 325 more than Buckingham Palace, so you know who's really more important...
but their relationship fell apart.

Erdogan blames Gulen, who lives in exile in Pennsylvania, for the 2016 coup attempt.

It has become a regular feat that Ottoman Turkish citizens seek asylum in Greece to escape Erdogan’s authoritarianism.
