Turkey's state-run news agency says a court has charged four army officers in connection with an alleged plot to overthrow the government.

The Anatolia news agency said Saturday that the officers - two colonels and two lieutenants - had been charged with belonging to a terrorist organization which, the ruling party says, was seeking to topple Turkey's Islamic-rooted government.
