According to the indictment, the Ergenekon organization prepared four coup plans known as Sarıkız (Blond Girl), Ayışığı (Moonlight), Yakamoz (Sea Sparkle) and Eldiven (Glove), and to implement these plans, an illegal network called the CÇG was established in the Gendarmerie General Command and entrusted with the mission of influencing the general public.
Slides the police seized from Şener Eruygur and Hurşit Tolon, retired generals who now stand trial in the Ergenekon case, show that the CÇG conducted various activities to spread propaganda that the country was facing a risk of reactionaryism and frequently organized meetings and seminars to this end. Within this framework, it also cooperated with nongovernmental organizations affiliated with the Ergenekon gang. Moreover, they recorded the personal data of people working at public institutions and categorized them under several groups based on their political and religious orientation and racial origins in order to “combat reactionaryism.”
In a presentation regarding the organization and activities of the CÇG, it was said that it was established to “act under the direct instruction and inspection of the Gendarmerie General Commander with a view to (1) trigger social reflexes, (2) combat disinformation, (3) create, use and archive private intelligence information and (4) organize acts and activities which cannot be performed under corporate identity in the face of acts and activities of destructive, separatist and reactionary groups and their extensions against the Turkish Republic.”
