Police on Monday have detained 13 suspects over mismanagement of funds, transferring them to FETÖ terrorist organization in Balıkesir province.

According to reports, police launched an investigation over allegations claiming that the suspects were unlawfully spending the funds they had received from the state to allegedly prepare projects.

It was alleged that the suspects spent 186,000 Turkish liras in an unlawful manner, and had transferred some of the money to the Gülenist terror organization (FETÖ).

The Gülen Movement is accused of infiltrating top state institutions, including the police and judiciary, and wiretapping thousands of people including senior officials, journalists, actors, NGOs and others.

Fethullah Gülen, who lives in self-imposed exile in the United States, is accused of leading a criminal organization and officials have reported that sufficient solid evidence has been discovered proving his crimes. The movement has been under scrutiny in numerous countries including Russia, United States, Canada, Azerbaijan, Germany and more.
