Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildirim accused the Fetullah Organization (FETO) of perpetrating rumors of a possibility of second coup attempt. "Those are a pack of lies to create unrest in the society," Yildirim said, accusing Fetullah of being behind the rumors. 

    Speaking to reporters during a reception to mark the new legislative term of the Turkish Parliament, Yildirim said that the government was taking all the necessary measures to prevent any such attempt, Turkey's Anadolu Agency (AA) reported.
