| Turkish security authorities located on Thursday barrels loaded with suspected materials, placed at a location close to a field where Formula-One car race is due to be held. The news agency, "Ikhlas," quoted security sources as saying that 15 suspected barrels were found placed some four kilometers from the car race track in the region of Tuzla in Istanbul. Security personnel sealed off the site and sent samples of the materials, stuffed into the barrels, to laboratories for examination. An official confirmed that the barrels contained contaminating materials, but stopped short of affirming whether they can be set off. |
