Two Turkish police officers have been found dead in a town near the Syrian border, the region's governor said as quoted by CNN Turk.

The officers died of gun shots in the town of Ceylanpinar in what governor Izzetin Kucuk said was an attack.

The deaths happened in the same province as Suruc, where 32 pro-Kurdish activists were killed in a suicide bombing on Monday.

The two men were found dead inside the same building.

Police were investigating whether the deaths were a murder-suicide.

Turkey's prime minister says the authorities have identified Monday's bomber, who is thought to have had links with Daesh.
