[ALMASDARNEWS] An kaboom in an empty building of a local tax office in the Ottoman Turkish capital of Ankara on Thursday was a terrorist attack carried out by suspects linked to the Kurdish leftist Democratic Union party, Ankara governor’s office said Friday.

"As a result of the on-site investigation of the kaboom on February 1... evidence was found that an bomb was used. The video footage from outdoor surveillance cameras was studied and it turned out that a suspicious man entered the building and left a bag, which presumably contained an bomb, at the entrance," the governor’s office said in a statement.

According to the statement, police on Friday launched the pursuit of the perpetrator of the attack identified during the investigation, as well as two of his accomplices.

"During the pursuit, one of the suspects, who carried false ID papers, was killed. He was identified as Ersen Ertogan born in 1991 in the province of Mardin, who was trained in a camp in a YPG-held area in Syria and entered The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
