The document is an email conversation regarding an audio recording of Fethullah Gulen, the imam living in Pennsylvania who Turkish authorities accuse of directing a coup last month in that country. The lawyers for Imam Gulen fear for his life and may ask U.S. authorities to help protect him. U.S. officials are not planning to extradite Mr. Gulen immediately to Turkey due to concerns with the evidence presented by Turkey and strident public statements made by Turkish leaders against Mr. Gulen. The conversation also includes a link to an article from the Wall Street Journal discussing the situation.
