ISTANBUL, Safar 27, 1436, Dec 19, 2014, SPA -- Turkey's state-run news agency says a prosecutor is demanding that an arrest warrant be issued for the U.S.-based cleric Fethullah Gulen a former ally-turned-foe of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, AP reported. The Anadolu Agency says Friday that a court in Istanbul will decide whether a warrant should be issued. The move would be a prelude to a formal request for Gulen's extradition from the United States, where he is living in self-imposed exile in Pennsylvania. Earlier, the agency said the court had ordered the arrest of four people detained in recent raids on a newspaper and television station affiliated with Gulen's movement. -- SPA 19:43 LOCAL TIME 16:43 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/1307714
