Turkey opposition leader has evidence that the putsch was a "controlled coup"

The leader of Turkey's main opposition party on Monday accused the government of being aware of the coup plan before it took place on July 15, drawing a furious response from President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.


Kemal Kilicdaroglu, head of the Republican People's Party (CHP), said he had evidence that the putsch was a "controlled coup" which the government had then allowed to go ahead and later exploit.

Kilicdaroglu told Turkish reporters in Istanbul that up to 180 people within the government had been using an encrypted messaging system for plotting the coup, adding the secret service had a list of these individuals.

"If this list is going to be kept secret then it indicates that July 15 was a controlled coup," said Kilicdaroglu, quoted by NTV television. "They (the authorities) had information about the coup in advance."
