The Turkish Parliament has acknowledged that its investigation into a coup attempt in 2016 produced no legally valid final report, despite the government blaming the faith-based Gülen movement and pursuing a decade-long crackdown involving mass arrests, convictions and dismissals. Parliament has previously said there was no agreed text that met the legal requirements to qualify as an official parliamentary inquiry report. Those figures cover both prosecutions directly related to the coup attempt and the much broader crackdown on alleged membership in the movement. Its chairman, ruling party lawmaker Reşat Petek, submitted what he described as the commission’s report to parliament on July 12, 2017. Parliament said in a 2022 statement that no report existed on which commission members had agreed and which therefore carried the legal status of a parliamentary inquiry report.
