The Ergenekon investigation started after a weapons arsenal was found in the district of Ümraniye in Istanbul in June 2007.
After many waves of arrests and detentions, more retired members of the military have now been taken into custody.
According to Ntvmsnbc.com, two retired soldiers were taken into custody in relation to weapons found buried on land in Poyrazköy, part of the Istanbul district of Beykoz.
