Miss Turkey loses crown within hrs over tweet on failed coup
Miss Turkey 2017 was forced to return her crown on Friday within hours of winning it, after an old tweet of hers regarding last year's failed Turkish coup surfaced and was deemed "unacceptable" by the organisers. Eighteen-year-old Itir Esen had tweeted on the coup attempt's anniversary, "I am having my period this morning to celebrate the July 15 martyrs' day."
