Police in Turkey have arrested 46 individuals alleged to have been involved in an elaborate football match-fixing plot.  Those arrested include players and coaches.  Some 30 matches are believed to be at the center of the scandal. 

Istanbul Buyuksehir Belediyespor assistant coach and former Turkish international Arif Erdem and Konyaspor goalkeeper Recep Ozturk were among those detained.

The probe began in Bochum, Germany several months ago and extended into several Turkish towns. 

All those arrested were brought to Istanbul for further questioning. 

Some 200 matches have been investigated in 11 different countries since the allegations started coming in last November.
