ANKARA (Reuters) - Turkey's interior minister said on Thursday two teachers detained after more than two months on a hunger protest over a government crackdown in which they lost their jobs have links to the leftist militant group DHKP-C.
Literature professor Nuriye Gulmen and primary school teacher Semih Ozakca were detained on Monday and jailed pending trial on Tuesday. They lost their jobs in a purge following a failed July coup against President Tayyip Erdogan.
