A court in Istanbul has issued an arrest warrant for US-based cleric Fethullah Gulen over Turkey's recent failed coup, the state-run Anadolu Agency reported.

The warrant accuses Gulen of "ordering the 15 July coup attempt", BBC reports.

Turkey has repeatedly urged the US to extradite Gulen. He denies any role.
