Meeting Turkish cleric Fethullah Gulen
Islamic cleric Fethullah Gulen is being blamed for Friday's failed coup in Turkey. President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has even called for his extradition from the United States, where he has been living in reclusion since the late 1990s. So, who is he? And why has he been described as the 'second most powerful man' in Turkey? Journalist Amana Fontanella-Khan met him at his Pennsylvania retreat.
