Turkish authorities investigate al-Qaida links to bombings
A Turkish newspaper said the driver of one of the trucks was filmed by the security camera outside the Neve Shalom synagogues. But it quoted police officials as saying the driver’s identity was still unclear. Hurriyet said the son of the truck’s owner has been missing for two weeks.
On Sunday, two Arabic-language newspapers received separate statements claiming Osama bin Laden’s group was responsible for the bombings, which Turkish officials said were likely the work of suicide bombers who detonated explosives in pickup trucks.
