Funeral preparations for FETÖ ringleader continue in Pennsylvania

Aerial footage shows organization members digging a spot in the farm's garden with shovels. The footage also captured a crane and ladders being brought to the area where the pit was dug. While organization members were digging the grave, they stretched a black tarp over the area to prevent members of the press from capturing aerial images. Yellow caution tape was also placed around the pit.

It was also observed that a wooden platform was being constructed next to the area where the pit was dug. While the excavation was being carried out under the tarp, more than 10 organization members watched the work.

Earlier in the day, it was seen that organization members had stretched another blue tarp over the area where the funeral is likely to be buried. It is estimated that this tarp will be used to prevent filming while the body is being buried.

ACTIVITY INCREASING

Aerial footage obtained from the farm used as the organization's headquarters shows that there are numerous vehicles inside the camp and that vehicles have begun to be parked along the roadsides. The footage captured many people working at the site of the pit, which is believed to have been dug for the grave, and an increase in the number of people walking around inside the camp.

Some members of the organization had made posts on social media stating that ringleader Gülen would be buried at the headquarters building in Pennsylvania with the participation of a limited number of organization members.
