Turkish Policeman Stabbed to Death
Turkish Policeman Stabbed to Death
Istanbul - Arabs Today
A Turkish policeman was stabbed to death in Istanbul on Sunday by a suspected ISIS member who had been arrested for planning a suicide attack, Turkish media said. The assailant stabbed the officer at around 11 pm as he was being taken out of a patrol car near a police station following his arrest, according to the privately run Dogan news service.
The attacker, who was detained on suspicion of planning to carry out a suicide bombing, was then shot dead by police, the pro-government Anadolu agency reported. The officer, who was taken from the scene in an ambulance, died from his wounds. It was not immediately clear how the man managed to keep a knife while being taken into custody.
Turkey was hit in 2016 by a succession of attacks that left hundreds dead in the bloodiest year of terror strikes in its history. The attacks were blamed on ISIS militants who had taken swathes of territory in neighboring Syria and Iraq as well as the outlawed Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) who have battled the Turkish state in an insurgency lasting more than three decades.
