Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said that the Ergenekon case will be reconsidered, should there be cause for that, Trend reports.
Kemal Kilicdaroglu, leader of the Republican People's Party, noted that there had been mistakes made within the framework of the Ergenekon and Sledgehammer cases. At the same time, he believes that the PM is trying to draw attention away from the scandal of late December.
Over 400 people, including Chief of the General Staff Ilker Basbug, public figures and journalists were on trial in the Ergenekon case over a coup attempt in 2003. Dozens of them were jailed for between 30 and 117 years in August 2013. The opposition insists that the case was opened only to suppress figures opposing the government.
