Make sure your No. 2 pencil is enciphered.
Navy officer E.A. was taken into custody in 2017 in connection with
the Fethullah Gülen Terror Organization (FETÖ) investigation. He
was called with a payphone number and when he answered he was
arrested. E.A. then agreed to confess.
E.A.'s information centered around a special FETÖ cipher system
that was used to ensure that FETÖ members would score well on
promotion tests in their organization by providing them with the
questions, which FETÖ had stolen, ahead of the tests. As a result,
the military school candidates were 'enciphered' prior to the tests
and these 'enciphered' candidates were selected by FETÖ officers
because these candidates had the highest scores.
So even though the testing team was made up entirely of FETÖ
members, the success of the candidates who received the answers
ahead of time from FETÖ would appear to have been genuine. E.A.
gave the following example: one year the numbers of 'enciphered'
candidates that ended in even numbers would enter the school and
in another year those ending in odd numbers would enter.
He's pretty sure that's the winner.
E.A.'s revelations were examined carefully at the Anti-Illegal and
Organized Crimes Bureau, the main base for the FETÖ probe. But
E.A.'s accusations had to be buttressed by scientific proof. So
mathematicians from the Applied Mathematics İnsitute at Middle
East Technical University (METU) investigated the tests and the
candidate numbers.
After two years of work (!), on 13 December 2019 the mathematicians
submitted their report, in which the encipherment methods used were
described. The report emphasized that the candidate numbers could
not have been coincidentally assigned. This would have been "a
smaller likelihood than winning the National Lottery's big prize ten
times in a row." According to the report, FETÖ gave the enciphered
numbers to their candidates in the Air Force Non-commissioned
Officers (NCO) tests in 2005, 2011 and 2012.
1,079 NCOs entered the Turkish Armed Forces (TAF), thanks to the
ciphers in tests administered in Izmir. Of these, 437 were arraigned
and another 639 were identified as having been contacted by FETÖ
'imams' via the payphone technique.
When the METU mathematicians' determinations were found to be in
line with previous investigative efforts, the Izmir public prosecutor
issued arrest warrants for 181 regular army officers and another 191
TAF members. Izmir police conducted simultaneous raids in 22
provinces to take these individuals into custody.
FETÖ himself caught on camera calling his minions from
a payphone.
