> The high-level graft probe has shaken the political establishment, exposing a bitter feud between the Justice and Development Party (AKP) government and the Islamic scholar Fethullah Gülen, whose followers hold key positions in the police, judiciary and secret services. Twenty-four people have been arrested under the corruption investigation that hit Turkey last week, including the sons of Interior Minister Muammer Guler and Caglayan. In response, approximately 70 police officers, including the powerful head of Istanbul’s force, have been sacked or moved to different posts.

Interesting writing — there’s a conflict between two Islamofascist factions; the police made some arrests and as a result there was retribution by other officials. Thanks DeaconBenjamin.
