ANKARA - The main Kurdish terrorist group in Turkey denied Wednesday that it was behind a suicide bombing that left seven dead and 100 injured Tuesday in Ankara, a pro-Kurdish news agency reported.
"We announce that we... have no connection twith this attack and that we do not approve of such methods," said a statement by the Kurdistan Workers` Party (PKK), which has been fighting for self-rule in Turkey`s southeast since 1984.
The statement was published on the Internet site of the Firat news agency.
Earlier, Ankara Governor Kemal Unal said a 28-year-old man suspected of belonging to the PKK was behind Tuesday`s powerful explosion which struck a busy commercial area during the evening rush hour.
