The coup soldiers who carried on with all phases of the coup plan formed a group on WhatsApp to coordinate the coup attempt. Among the correspondence in the group formed by Major Murat Çelebioğlu, the order to shoot civilian citizens was given with expressions such as “Crush, burn, no compromise”. Instructions for bloody intervention against civilians and the policemen who resisted, which took place and was demanded, were also among the instructions given to the putschist soldiers. “Instruction for dispersing the crowds with fire”, it was clearly observed in the correspondence in the night of the coup d’état that FETO members used shocking expressions and that clear instructions were issued to disperse the crowds trying to block the attempt, with fire. Some of the documented correspondence is as follows: - Lieutenant Colonel Muzaffer Düzenli: Repeat Order. I’m relaying. Gathering crowds will be dispersed by fire. - Colonel Müslüm Kaya: They are bringing heavy equipment to AKOM. They are shooting. - Colonel Uzay Şahin: Respond with fire, keep them off. - Major Mehmet Karabekir: As one in the field I am shooting at the crowd I’m waiting. They are dispersing 10-15 people are totaled. No losing initiative.
