Competition for admission of judges and prosecutors to vacant positions in Turkey will be held December 24.
Meanwhile, over 2,000 prosecutors and judges lost their posts and nearly 800 of them were arrested in the fight against the movement of Fethullah Gulen, who is believed to be involved in the military coup attempt in Turkey.
It was earlier reported that the supporters of Fethullah Gulen have penetrated into several government bodies of Turkey.
On July 15 evening, Turkish authorities said a military coup attempt took place in the country. Meanwhile, a group of servicemen announced about transition of power to them.

Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said that the death toll as a result of the military coup attempt stood at 246 people excluding the coup plotters and over 2,000 people were wounded.
