A Turkish man detained as a suspected would-be suicide bomber in northern Turkey was actually wearing a burqa to disguise himself to meet a secret lover from a dating site, local media reported on Sunday.
Locals in the Black Sea province of Ordu alerted the police of a “would-be suicide bomber” on Saturday after noticing that a burqa-clad “woman” talking on the phone at a bus stop was wearing men’s shoes, Dogan news agency said.
A police team arrived at the scene and “unmasked” the man, who was dressed in a full-length, Islamic-style black robe with a niqab - the head covering worn by many Muslim women - covering his face. Authorities detained him for “inflicting fear and panic in the public,” Dogan reported.
