Turkey may need to build new courthouses to cope with thousands of litigations launched  in connection with the failed coup, Turkish Justice Minister Bekir Bozdağ said on Wednesday, BBC reports.

"We will build new courthouses if needed,” he noted, noting that the construction of a new courthouse is already underway in the town of Sincan, near Ankara.

The Minister also added that he doesn’t expect mass trials with "thousands of attorneys." 

The Minister made the aforementioned statement against the background of the new arrests in the entre country, as a result of which the number of persons arrested on suspicion of their implication in the July coup attempt reached 32,000.
