Yaşar Güler had pointed to November 25: Allegations of preparations to dismiss lieutenants!

Following the graduation ceremony at the National Defense University Military Academy on August 30, 2024, the newly graduated lieutenants crossed their swords for the oath text in line with school tradition and chanted the slogan "We are the soldiers of Mustafa Kemal."

While pro-government media hinted that the young lieutenants were 'coup plotters,' AKP Chairman and President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan had said, "We will ensure that those involved in this matter receive the punishment they deserve. This is not a playground for those who do not know their place. We will certainly not leave our country to a field where these people who do not know their place can run wild." 

MINISTER GÜLER HAD POINTED TO NOVEMBER 25

Following Erdoğan's statement, an investigation was launched into the lieutenants, and Minister of National Defense Yaşar Güler pointed to November 25, stating, "We will make the decision at the High Disciplinary Board."

While the disciplinary process regarding the lieutenants continues, it was revealed that two separate reports had been submitted to the government.

ALLEGATION OF DISMISSAL PREPARATIONS

According to a report by Sözcü, some of the lieutenants have been served with notifications stating that disciplinary proceedings have been initiated against them with a request for their dismissal. The lieutenants who received the notifications are accused of engaging in actions that damage the reputation of the Turkish Armed Forces (TSK).

The final decision regarding the lieutenants is aimed to be made after their defenses are taken, starting from November 25.
