ANKARA (AA) - Turkish security forces on Monday caught a wanted terrorist in Turkey's eastern Erzurum province, according to the country's Interior Ministry.
The terrorist is said to be responsible for last month's killing of Savci Kucuk, a ruling Justice and Development (AK) Party member of the Erzurum City Council, as well as his nephew Ahmet Kucuk.
Muhammet Fadullah Kamis, codenamed Sevger, was on the Interior Ministry's wanted terrorists list with a bounty of 300,000 Turkish liras (roughly $53,000) on his head.
Kamis admitted during interrogation that he killed Kucuk and his nephew, the province's Governor Okay Memis told reporters.
In its more than 30-year terror campaign against Turkey, the PKK -- listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the U.S. and the EU -- has been responsible for the deaths of nearly 40,000 people, including many women, children, and infants.
