Two retired¹ Turkish generals have been charged over an alleged² plot in 2003 to overthrow³ the government, reports say.

报道称，两位土耳其退役将军被起诉在2003年密谋推翻政府。

Tension has risen between the military and the ruling party

Cetin Dogan, former head of Turkey's First Army, and Engin Alan, a former special forces commander, were both remanded in custody⁴ pending⁵ trial.

They are the most senior of 33 suspects charged so far over the alleged plot.

The case has increased tensions between the military and the Islamist-rooted ruling party. However, the military has denied any coup⁶（政变，妙计） plot.

Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan has vowed⁷ to punish conspirators⁸.

"No one is above law, no one has impunity⁹（不受惩罚） ," he told a gathering¹⁰ of his Justice and Development Party (AKP).

Justice pledge

"Those conspiring¹¹ behind closed doors to trample¹² on（践踏，蹂躏） the nation's will from now on find themselves facing justice," Mr Erdogan said.

More than 49 people were detained on Monday over the alleged coup plot, in an operation of unprecedented¹³（史无前例的） scale.

Among the 33 officers charged are including seven navy admirals and four army generals.

The former heads of the air force and navy and a general were freed on Thursday, having been questioned by prosecutors¹⁴（检察官，告发者） .

The three - retired air force head Ibrahim Firtina, former navy chief Ozden Ornek and former deputy army chief Ergin Saygun - have not been charged but remain under investigation¹⁵, prosecutors said.

Ergenekon conspiracy¹⁶

The army has intervened to overthrow elected governments four times since 1960.

Reports of the alleged plot first surfaced in the liberal Taraf newspaper, which said it had discovered documents detailing plans to bomb two Istanbul mosques¹⁷ and provoke（激怒，煽动） Greece into shooting down a Turkish plane over the Aegean Sea.

The army has said the plans had been discussed but only as part of a planning exercise at a military seminar（讨论会，研讨班） .

The alleged plot is similar, and possibly linked, to the reported Ergenekon conspiracy, in which military figures and staunch（坚定的，忠诚的） secularists（世俗论者） allegedly planned to foment¹⁸（煽动，挑起） unrest, leading to a coup.

Scores of people, including military officers, journalists and academics, are on trial in connection with that case.
