ANKARA (Reuters) - More than a dozen suspected members of Islamic State appeared under police protection in an Ankara courtroom on Monday accused of involvement in Turkey's deadliest suicide bombing, which killed more than 100 people in the capital just over a year ago.

The defendants were brought into the courtroom under the protection of riot police in body armour and helmets, as families and lawyers of the victims chanted "murderers" and demanded the state also accept responsibility.
