The arrest came after their reporting on the Fetullah Terrorist Organization , the group behind the 2016 defeated coup in Türkiye. Learning about the presence of police in his house from his frightened daughter at 6 AM , Erel said:"I looked out of the window and there were about 20-30 policemen standing below. When I turned around, I saw the cops breaking into our bedroom."
