(English) Turkey coup attempt: Erdogan ‘snatch squad’ soldiers captured

Turkey says it has captured all but one of the soldiers accused of trying to seize the president during last month’s failed coup.

Special forces arrested another 11 soldiers overnight after a two-week manhunt near Marmaris.

Recep Tayyip Erdogan was on holiday at the resort in south-west Turkey on the night of the coup attempt, but fled before his hotel was raided.

The fugitives were located in a forested area, reports say.

Since the failed putsch Mr Erdogan has targeted people suspected of links to those involved.

Tens of thousands of people have been detained, or dismissed or suspended from roles in the military, judiciary, civil service and education.
