Turkey: Further Crackdown After Saturday's Twin Bombing

 
By Catherine Hardy 

At least 235 people have been detained in raids across Turkey over alleged links to Kurdish militants.

The arrests come two days after 44 people died and 150 were injured in twin bombings at a major football stadium in Istanbul.

The interior ministry says the arrests were made across 11 provinces from northwest to southeast Turkey.

The allegations include “spreading terror group propaganda” over social media and acting on behalf of the PKK.
