According to Dogan news agency, an alleged killer of Russian Su-24 pilot has been detained in Turkey.
The man, who is believed to be responsible for the Russian pilot's death, is identified as Alparslan Chelik.
According to Hurriyet newspaper, Chelik was detained Wednesday evening in Izmir. Alparslan Chelik has reportedly been fighting against the government forces in Syria.
