Turkish police detained 24 people, including mining company executives and personnel, as an investigation into the May 13 mine disaster got underway and the last of the 301 victims were buried May 18.
The detentions were the first of the inquiry and came five days after a fire sent deadly carbon monoxide coursing through the mine in the western Turkish town of Soma, causing the country's worst ever mining accident.
The disaster has sparked countrywide protests at mine owners for ignoring safety. (Reuters)
