Pakistan has promised Turkey’s visiting foreign minister that it would investigate a network of schools Ankara wants shut for alleged links to Turkish opposition figure Fethullah Gulen. The request by Ankara is part of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's campaign to crack down on networks affiliated with Gulen following last month’s failed coup.
