Turkey: suicide bomber was PKK member
Turkey has identified the suicide bomber who blew himself up in Istanbul, wounding 32 people, as a member of the country's main autonomy-seeking Kurdish rebel group.
The Istanbul governor's office said Tuesday the 24-year-old man joined the Kurdistan Workers' Party, or PKK, in 2004. The statement did not directly blame the PKK for the attack. It said police were still investigating the bombing and the bomber's contacts. (AP)
