      Miss Turkey stripped of her crown over coup comments
      from The Independent
      The winner of Miss Turkey 2017 has been stripped of her crown over a tweet she posted about last year’s coup attempt. Itir Esen, 18, was awarded the beauty contest prize on Thursday but had her crown taken away hours later after it emerged she had commented on the July 2016 attempt to topple the government of Turkey’s controversial president, Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Ms Esen is said to have posted on the one-year anniversary of the coup making inappropriate comments about the 250 people who were killed opposing the attempted overthrow, which was swiftly crushed.
