Suspected Coup Plotter Could Leave US for Egypt, Canada, Other Countries

28 July 2016, 09:12 GMT

MOSCOW (Sputnik) – Egypt has not yet received an asylum request from US-based cleric Fethullah Gulen, whom Turkey accuses of orchestrating the recent botched coup, Egyptian Prime Minister Sherif Ismail as quoted by local media Thursday.

Turkish Justice Minister Bekir Bozdag told Turkish television earlier in the day Ankara had intelligence suggesting Gulen may leave the United States for Canada, Egypt, Australia, South Africa or Mexico.

"There is no confirmed information about this. If such a request is submitted, it will be examined," Ismail said, as quoted by Egypt’s Mubasher Misr online news outlet.
