Along with it, the commander of the Turkish navy Admiral ‘Veysel Kosele’ also remains missing. Both the possibilities that either the Turkish navy Admiral Kosele has joined in the rebels or the rebels must have kidnapped him, are being expressed. It had been revealed that the existing and the former Turkish air force chief had participated in this coup.

Apart from this, the weapons supply found from the basement of the five star hotel where the President Erdogan was staying during the coup attempt has caused an upheaval.
