SARAJEVO (Reuters) - Two armed men disguised as Muslim women in burqas held up a bank in Sarajevo and got away with some $40,000, Bosnian police said on Tuesday.
They said the pair entered a Union bank branch in the capital wearing head-to-toe black dresses and veils typical of women adhering to the orthodox Islamic code and trained guns on customers. They then made customers lie on the floor while the emptied the tills, police added.
"Everything happened in a moment. Two persons in black niqabs (burqas) came into the bank. I thought they were ladies," the Sarajevo daily Oslobodjenje quoted bank customer Mehmedalija Komarac as saying.
Women in burqas and men with long beards have become a common sight in the Bosnian capital in recent years.
Obviously she was only wearing the traditional dress so she could listen to music.
Saw on SKY IIRC that the men disguise themselves as woman to avoid surveillance
so your saying if she was christian he wouldnt have posted this?
I dont get your post?
I think it's bad taste to listen to a mp3 player while people are deciding the fate of another person no matter from what religion you are.
Fudzy - I take it your anti-nothing?
Facist or realist? So because he is new you attacking him?
Good saying.Let's me think about a saying - If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything.
Sarcasm Fudzy? Wow thats a big word for you.
Either way its still contemptible. I hope they throw the book at her.Shame, I doubt you would've posted this story had the women not been muslim.
And? Wearing traditional dress just so she could listen to music was her action.Its got nothing to do with her dress or her religion, its got to do with her actions.
