Sound bomb hits AKP bureau in southeastern Turkey

No casualties were reported after the blast hit the bureau opened by the AKP deputy Gönül Bekin Şahkulubey as a coordination office for campaigning in Artuklu. 

One individual who purportedly threw the sound bomb grenade into the bureau was detained and the police are searching for another involved in the attack.

A guarded vehicle outside the bureau was slightly damaged when the sound bomb exploded. Police forces were dispatched to the scene and the number of security vehicles doubled around the area.

An investigation has been launched into the incident.

The incident comes two days after twin blasts at offices of the Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP) in the southern provinces of Mardin and Adana.
