Turkish police on Monday said they had arrested a Syrian woman for planting a bomb that killed six people in central Istanbul, adding that she was working for Kurdish militants.
The woman is "of Syrian nationality," the private NTV television quoted the police as saying. She reportedly admitted to have received an order from the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) listed as a terror group by Ankara and its Western allies.
