Turkey Arrests Danish IS Suspect Sought by Interpol
2019-03-14
[AnNahar] Ottoman Turkish police have tossed in the slammer
Drop the rosco, Muggsy, or you're one with the ages!
a Danish woman suspected of joining Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
in Syria, a state news agency said on Wednesday.

The woman, who is originally from Leb, was arrested in the northeastern city of Bursa, Anadolu agency said. She had been sought by Interpol.

The agency said the woman, who it only identified by the initials AAM, had crossed illegally into The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the decaying remnant of the Ottoman Empire....
and police found a fake passport in her home.

At the height of Islamic State's self-declared "caliphate", when the bully boy group controlled parts of Iraq and Syria, Turkey was one of the principal routes for imported muscle trying to join the jihadists.

Ankara has since cracked down on the frontier and has stepped up arrests and expulsions of suspected foreign IS fighters.
