Key suspect in Istanbul suicide bombings arrested
2004-01-30
Turkish police have detained a suspected top leader of a Turkish al-Qaida-linked cell believed to have carried out the November suicide bombings in Istanbul that killed 62 people, an official said Friday. Istanbul Gov. Muammer Guler said police were questioning the suspect, who was detained Thursday in Istanbul.
Say hello to Mr. Truncheon
Guler said the man, who was not identified, was "an important name among the planners of the Istanbul attacks" and a leader in a Turkish group that authorities have linked to al-Qaida.
Excellent. Murat, if you’re out there, how does this investigation look from your end?
