Who is Fethulah Gulen and why does Turkey's President want him in prison?
Muslim cleric Fethullah Gulen has been described as Turkey's second most powerful man.
The ageing cleric has a large following in Turkey, possibly stretching into the millions, who he reaches from his Pennsylvania base.
Gulen exiled himself in the United States in the late 1990s.
He is a former ally of Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who accused Gulen of trying to overthrow him last year.
