ANKARA, May 22 (Reuters) - A bomb at a shopping mall in Turkey's capital Ankara killed four Turks and one Pakistani on Tuesday and injured more than 60 people, Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan said.

"We have seen a vicious, ruthless terror attack at Ankara's busiest time," a visibly shaken Erdogan told reporters. He said steps would be taken following this deadly blast, coming before parliamentary elections.
