Erdogan in pledge over mine tragedy

Turkey’s prime minister has pledged not to allow anyone responsible for the country’s worst mine disaster to go unpunished, and promised improved supervision of the industry.

Recep Tayyip Erdogan spoke a day after a court ordered the arrests of three more people as part of a probe into the coal mine fire in the western town of Soma which killed 301 people. The arrests raised the number of suspects facing charges of negligent death to eight.
