Soon after the explosion, on Friday, Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan had said he was certain the attack had been carried out by the DHKP/C.
A photo of the suspect suicide bomber was broadcast last night. The suspect attacker was named as 30-year-old Ecevit Şanlı.
Speaking to Haberturk, last night, PM Erdoğan said “The suicide bomber exploded the bomb right after crossing [the personnel entry] and died in the explosion. A birth mark on his head proves [his identity], but DNA tests will be carried out to make sure. It is clear that he is a member of DHKP/C. He has perpetrated such attacks before.”
On Saturday the governor's office released a statement saying that the bomber had detonated some 6 kilos of TNT and used a hand granade as well in the attack.
