ISTANBUL (Thomson Financial) - Turkish police suspect the gunmen behind Wednesday’s attack on a guardpost outside the US embassy in Istanbul might belong to Al-Qaeda, the NTV news channel reported.
Police, contacted by AFP, refused to comment on the report, citing the secrecy of the investigation.
NTV said police had found information linking the gunmen to Afghanistan, leading to suspicions that the attack was inspired by the Al-Qaeda network.
Three gunmen and three police officers were killed in Wednesday’s attack on the well-fortified consulate building overlooking the Bosphorus Strait.
