The suspect, identified as Ecevit \u015eanl\u0131, has previously spent time in prison, according to reports.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe suicide bomber exploded the bomb right after crossing [the personnel entry] and died in the explosion. A birth mark on his head proves [his identity], but DNA tests will be carried out to make sure. It is clear that he is a member of DHKP\/C.

You know that the DHKP\/C made some other attempts lately, but Turkey is taking steps against terrorism as well,\u201d said Erdo\u011fan, highlighting the recent police raids against lawyers and alleged members of the leftist group.<\/p>\n<p>Suspected suicide bomber Ecevit \u015eanl\u0131 spent time in prison between 1997 and 2000 for attacking an Istanbul military guest house, Harbiye Orduevi, with a flame thrower.<\/p>\n<p>He participated in hunger strikes while being held in \u00dcmraniye Prison in 2000, a time when massive hunger strikes were initiated in Turkish prisons. \u015eanl\u0131, who suffered from Wernicke Korsakoff syndrome, was released on probation in 2002.<\/p>\n<p>The Ankara\u00a0Governor&#8217;s Office also confirmed that the suspect was a member of DHKP\/C and had attacked an Istanbul military guesthouse in 1997.
