             So thoughtful. Never forgets hubby's b-day.

In Bursa, N.Ö. (46), who is in the process of divorcing her husband

V.P. (46), told a parking lot valet that "I want to leave a birthday 

present for my husband."  N.Ö. gave the valet a tip to open the car

door and left the "gift", which was narcotics (!).  Security cameras 

recorded N.Ö. setting this trap for V.P. and she was taken into 

custody but then released. 

V.P., who owns a moving company, married N.Ö. in 2016 but over

the past year the marriage has gone sour.  N.Ö.'s divorce lawyer 

invited V.P. to meet him at a cafeteria.  However (!), N.Ö. followed

V.P. to the meeting and after he'd gone into the cafeteria she had 

the valet put the "birthday gift" - narcotics and a measuring scale

wrapped in a towel - into V.P.'s jacket pocket in the car.

                                            Birthday boy.

When V.P. returned to his car after the meeting he found the drugs

and thought that the measuring scale might be a listening device.

Thinking his wife had set a trap for him, V.P. turned himself into

the police, who checked the security cameras that fingered N.Ö.

Police determined that N.Ö. was using four separate telephone

lines.  She was taken into custody the day before yesterday and

released on judicial supervision.

V.P. commented that "I found out that she's been involved in lots

of crimes in the past.  I think she figured that with me in prison

she could make more money.  Even the devil wouldn't think of 

what she did."
