| (Xinhua) -- Turkish police confiscated nearly 21 kilograms of plastic explosives in the southern province of Adana on Tuesday, an official statement said. Acting on a tip-off, anti-smuggling teams waged an operation to a house in Adana to seize illicit drugs, but instead they found A- 4 plastic explosives that belonged to the illegal Kurdish Workers' Party (PKK), said the statement from the governor's office of Adana. Two people were detained in the operation, added the statement. Commenting on the operation, Adana police department's head Salih Kesmez said the explosives were going to be used in terrorist attacks to be waged in Turkey's major cities. |
