A wife and mother of a slain miner react as police block the gate on April 13, 2015 to a special tribunal set up in a cultural center in Akhisar in western Turkey before a trial over 301 miners killed last year. Dozens of suspects will stand trial on April 13 in Akhisar, some 40 kms (25 miles) from the coal mining town of Soma where the disaster took place in May. Forty-five people are to stand trial, including eight former top managers from the Soma Komur group that ran the mine who have been accused of murder over the deaths of the miners, Turkey's worst ever mining disaster.
