The detainees' courthouse procedures, including a questioning by public prosecutors, lasted for 13 hours, the sources said. A total of 21 people were detained across Turkey on suspicion of involvement in the Wednesday's bomb attack that targeted a convoy of military-owned vehicles in Ankara, killing 28 people and leaving 81 others injured.
