Istanbul nightclub attack involved an intelligence organization: Turkey’s deputy PM

 Turkish Deputy PM Numan Kurtulmus says the Istanbul nightclub shooting on New Year’s Eve was carried out professionally with the involvement of an intelligence organization, Reuters reports.

"It appears the Reina attack is not just a terrorist organization's act, but there was also an intelligence organization involved. It was an extremely planned and organized act," Kurtulmus said during an interview with broadcaster A Haber.

Islamic State has claimed responsibility for the attack in which 39 people were killed, saying it was revenge for Turkish military involvement in Syria.
