Istanbul Governor Muammer Guler said that a sound bomb exploded while a terrorist woman was carrying it and that the target was not those who were in the bus.
Expert teams launched observations in site.

The official said that they suspected of the Marxist Leninist Communist Party. The blast allegedly occurred after three people had got off the bus.
