‘We captured his wife but we didn't make a big fuss’: Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan says a wife of former Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has been captured, more than a week after Baghdadi killed himself during a raid by U.S. special forces
ANKARA - Turkey has captured a wife of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, President Tayyip Erdogan said on Wednesday, more than a week after the Islamic State leader killed himself during a raid by U.S. special forces in northern Syria.
Earlier this week a senior Turkish official said Turkey had captured Baghdadi’s sister, her husband and daughter-in-law, and hoped to gain intelligence from them about Islamic State, although Ankara has not said what knowledge they may have had about the group’s operations. “We discovered her real identity pretty quickly. At that point, she volunteered a lot of information about Baghdadi and the inner workings of ISIS,” the official said, adding that the information led to a series of arrests elsewhere.
