KUALA LUMPUR: The wives of three Turkish nationals detained here over the past few days are claiming that the Turkish government may have played a role in getting their husbands arrested.

Speaking at a press conference held outside a mall here Saturday, the wives of Turgay Karaman and Ismet Ozcelik claim that Ankara may have influenced the Malaysian authorities to make the arrests in a bid to prosecute followers of Fethullah Gulen.
