Participants of 2016 coup in Turkey sentenced to life imprisonment

Participants in a coup attempt in Turkey in 2016 were sentenced to life imprisonment. Reported by Turkish news agency Anadolu.

A Turkish court sentenced members of the Turkish Armed Forces who were directly involved in the hostilities in the 2016 coup d'etat attempt to life imprisonment, assigning from three to 79 life sentences. The bulk of those sentenced are pilots and military personnel from the Akinci airbase in Ankara province. The pilots got the maximum, all of them were given 79 life sentences.



It is noted that participating in hostilities on the side of the rebels, the pilots inflicted airstrikes on the parliament, the presidential palace area and the security service building in Ankara.

It is noted that several dozen people from the Akinji airbase out of 475 accused were sentenced in this case.

On July 15, 2016, a group of soldiers and officers of the Turkish Armed Forces attempted a coup and capture of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, but the mutiny was suppressed. After that, the Turkish authorities arrested more than 80 thousand people, one way or another involved in the rebellion, and also dismissed or suspended over 160 thousand people, including military personnel. Ankara accuses the organization of the opposition preacher Fethullah Gülen FETO (terrorist organization of Fethullahists) of the rebellion. Gulen himself lives in the United States and rejects all charges.

        After Erdogan's death, they can be declared heroes who tried to save the country
        from Islamization - according to the precepts of Ataturk, and in accordance with the constitution of Ataturk.
        Which was replaced by Erdogan. Chiefs are in the habit of rewriting the constitution

        One Swedish king who liked tea and disliked coffee,
        ruled that two brothers sentenced for life (for murder)
        will drink every day: one three cups of tea, the other three cups of coffee.
        The king thought that the "bad" coffee lover would die first.
        The first, very soon, the king died.
        Both brothers lived a record 80+ years and died about a year apart laughing

      Always interested in the question - is one life sentence not enough? Those who are trying to change power through an armed coup, of course, must be punished in full, whether in Turkey or any other country. As a rule, this method of changing power in the future leads to even more blood.

        In different countries, the total term for several crimes is calculated in different ways.

        The United States and apparently Turkey all terms are summed up. Therefore, it turns out as much as it turned out. Then, by the gigantic numbers, you can see who is the bigger villain.

        In Russia and the USSR, the system of absorbing a term for a petty crime with a longer term for a serious crime.

        After all, it was considered not a punishment, but a term for correction. Those. if a person “reformed” from the thirst for murder in 15 years, then even more so during this period he should lose the urge to steal for one thing.

        Here's a naive but humane approach.
        Truth and the tower was apparently for the incorrigible.

          I read it and was not surprised. Although I myself saw how they drove around the city to a demonstration execution of drug dealers.

          - crimes against a person (kidnapping, slave trade, rape, pedophilia,
          murder, willful infliction of grievous harm, organ trafficking);
          - crimes against the state (treason, calls for separatism, organization
          coup d'état, involvement in riots and riots, espionage);
          - crimes of a military nature (desertion, intelligence, looting, voluntary

          orders) terrorism;
          - trade in arms and drugs.

      "Exposing" the conspiratorial network is MI6's merit, and posop Richard Moore has become an even greater friend. MI6 helped prepare the coup, and when it failed, it turned over the conspirators to Erdogan. Now Erdogan is under the hood of the British, and

      No luck ... Since the time of Kemal, the military were the guarantor of the Swiec state and presented themselves as opponents of separatism and religious sectarianism. As evidenced by 4 coups in the last 50 years of the 20th century. Now Edrogan has demolished this obstacle and separatists and Islamists of all stripes rushed together under his wing. It was with their hands that he gathered himself, or rather is already building the Ottoman Empire. If (as some experts say) the Russian special services had a hand in the failure of the coup, then our policy is worthless in all BV. After this, you shouldn't be surprised that the Turks ended up in Russia's underbelly ...
