ANKARA, Turkey -- Turkish authorities have issued a warrant for the arrest of former soccer star and legislator Hakan Sukur over his links to a U.S.-based Muslim cleric, accused by Turkey of masterminding last months failed coup, media reports said Friday.Meanwhile, Turkeys foreign minister told reporters that 32 Turkish diplomats who were called back to Turkey as part of an investigation into the coup attempt had failed to return.Turkey has launched a massive crackdown on alleged supporters of the movement led by Fethullah Gulen in the aftermath of the July 15 coup attempt that left more than 270 people dead, raising concerns among European nations and human rights groups.More than 35,000 people have been detained for questioning while tens of thousands of others from government jobs, including in the judiciary, media, education, health care, military and local government. Gulen, who runs a network of worldwide charities and schools from self-imposed exile in Pennsylvania, has denied any knowledge or involvement in the coup.The state-run Anadolu Agency said an arrest warrant was issued for Sukur late Thursday, accusing him of membership in an armed terror organization. His father Selmet Sukur was detained in the northwestern province of Sakarya on Friday, hours after a warrant was also issued against him, the agency reported. A court has also ordered that both mens assets in Turkey be seized, Anadolu said.Sukur, who reportedly left Turkey last year, played for Inter Milan and Galatasaray and was Turkeys top goal-scorer in international competitions. He has made no secret of his affiliation to Gulen, and resigned from the ruling party in 2013 following a government rift with the movement.During a joint news conference with his Iranian counterpart, Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said that of the 208 diplomatic personnel serving in foreign posts recalled following the coup, 32 had not complied and had fled to other countries.Cavusoglu added that the ministry was in touch with the countries to which they had fled, seeking to secure their return.Turkey has branded Gulens movement a terror organization and wants the cleric returned to Turkey to face trial. Washington has said it would need evidence of the clerics involvement, and says the regular extradition process must be allowed to take its course.During Fridays press conference, Cavusoglu said that a delegation from the U.S. Department of Justice would be arriving on Aug. 22 and meet with their Turkish counterparts on the following two days to discuss the extradition request.Justice Minister Bekir Bozdag said the U.S. delegation would include three Justice Department experts and one from the State Department.Germanys Foreign Ministry meanwhile, confirmed a report by the weekly Der Spiegel that a German woman who was arrested in Turkey following the coup attempt was released on Friday.

"It just felt like it was my time to move on," she said in a phone interview from her hometown of Burlington, Ont. Despite several clashes with the teenager this year, Kimi Raikkonen says Max Verstappen is doing a good job at Red Bull despite being a bit on the limit at times.Raikkonen has been one of the grids world champions to criticise Verstappen for moving late in the braking zone when defending position this year, something echoed by Sebastian Vettel and Lewis Hamilton. Verstappen claimed an impressive second last time out in Japan by holding off Hamilton -- though Mercedes initially lodged a complaint about his driving after the race, a protest that was eventually dropped.?Raikkonen says Verstappen has been doing a good job despite the criticism.Like Ive always said, you can have two different opinions as one guy is happy and another one is not, depending on who comes out on top, he said. I have nothing against him, hes a good driver and hes doing a good job, obviously certain things are a bit on the limit, but there are stewards in the races that will decide if its good or not.These things will always balance out in the long run. Sometimes you end up fighting with the same driver many times in one year and then with another driver the next year, but II have nothing really to say about him.dddddddddddd.Despite not finishing either car on the podium, Ferrari looked to have made a step forward in Japan having out-qualified both Red Bull drivers. Raikkonen says the team will not be satisfied with the car until it is at the front of the pack.We keep working all the time and in some races weve been stronger than in others. Were doing things right, things are improving, but we still have a lot of work to do. But all the small things were doing, all the little details weve brought, are paying off but its a never-ending process.We keep making progress, and we were happy with out pace in Suzuka. But well only be 100 per cent happy when well be at the front. From where we were the previous week, we were less happy in Malaysia, for sure. Obviously you always have some expectations, you think one circuit will suit you better than the other and in Suzuka it was good. It didnt give us the results we were hoping for, the results we should have got, but it was one of those things. ' ' '
