Erdogan"s government will be oustered

Five police commissioners and about 10 mid-level officers were removed from their posts for detecting corruption within the government.

According to Turkish media, Erdogan's government began to take revenge the police, who identified and arrested dozens of people involved in corruption , smuggling, money laundering , etc.

"It was a dirty operation, ...we did not know about it and those who stand behind it will be revealed," that was said by the Prime Minister, who looked confused . Erdogan did not say anything about the behavior of his ministers and did not assess the facts of corruption. But, as on the Gezi park case, he tried to seek "foreign footprint."

His deputy Bulent Arinc was more specific, noting that for 14 months police arranged wiretapping and surveillance of the arrested people. "The government knew nothing and those involved should explain it," said Arinc in anger. He did not rule out that the ministers involved in corruption may resign.

In turn, the opposition leaders called the actions of Erdogan and his government as totally unacceptable and illegal. "We're on the side of those policemen who unmasked corruption and will not let them suffer," said the leader of the main opposition party CHP Kilicdaroglu.

The government, which calls itself legal and stands guard over the interests of citizens, must punish corrupt officials, and not those who denounced them, he continued.

Meanwhile, according to the morning of December 19, in custody are 42 people, while 10 others were released on not leaving.

However, the persecution of the police has not stopped. In Izmir, six police officers, who were also investigating corruption cases, were dismissed.

Experts do not exclude that the arrest of the chief customs of Sadarak Mirmuhammed Seyidov indicates involvement of Azerbaijani citizens into corruption and money laundering in Turkey.

With regard to the political situation, many observers predict at least the government's resignation and perhaps the ouster of Erdogan himself. However, this will not happen voluntarily, and could take place only under public pressure.

According to sources in Turkey, the country's public is shocked by the extent of corruption on the part of members of the government and the machinations in which the son of the Minister of Internal Affairs was involved. Despite this, Erdogan did not dismiss him. - 02B-
