RE: [Daughters_of_Ataturk] Turkey's Political Tensions Weigh on Women's Heads Run Date: 03/17/08 By Yigal Schleifer

 

Standing next to Yilmazer was a friend, Dilek Kocal, whose long, dark hair is uncovered. "I feel happy, too," said Kocal, also 20. "This is a sign of her religion. I believe she should be able to wear it."

 

After reading this sentence, I am wondering about Dilek Kocal’s religion. So, if a girl’s long dark haired is exposed and if she is not wearing a headscarf, what is her religion?
