MERSIN, Turkey (AA) - A total of four suspects allegedly linked to the PKK/KCK terror group have been arrested in Turkey's southern Mersin province, judicial sources said Friday.
Anti-terror police launched an investigation into the alleged members of the terrorist group, the chief public prosecutor's office in Mersin said in a statement.
Arrest warrants were issued for six people whose fingerprints were found on improvised explosives, it added.
Police continue operations to capture the remaining two suspects.
In its more than 30-year terror campaign against Turkey, the PKK -- listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the US and EU -- has been responsible for the deaths of some 40,000 people, including women, children and infants.
