Istanbul’s chief prosecutor said the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party, or PKK, was behind the explosions in Istanbul’s Güngören district in July that killed 17 people and wounded 154 others, private news channel CNNTürk reported yesterday.

The indictment said the PKK was responsible for the explosions.

Prosecutor Murat Yönder said in his indictment that two of the suspects should stand trial for potential sentences of life imprisonment for “destructing the unity of the state and integrity of the country.”

The other seven suspects will be tried for being a member of the PKK/Kongra-Gel terrorist group and for keeping explosives. The trials will be held at an Istanbul court soon.
