Below news was published almost a year ago to list the books written against Gulen. Mr. Fethullah Gulen, for about a year, has been accused of getting some writers jailed because of the books they wrote. However, some columnists have been writing against him for more than 30 years and many anti-Gulen books are on shelves. Moreover Gulen has always supported freedom of speech and has recently reiterated his stance.
