the partner of the supermarket attacker in Paris, Amedy Coulibaly, in
Turkey.
Hayat Boumeddiene was seen passing through passport control at the airport.
Turkey's Foreign Minister, Mevlut Cavusoglu, said she had arrived on
January 2, before continuing to Syria six days later.
Boumeddiene's partner, Coulibaly, had killed four people at a Kosher
supermarket in eastern Paris on Friday before police stormed the
building.
He is also believed to have shot dead a policewoman the day before.
Turkey said it had not been asked to deny her access, as they need to
receive intelligence first before tracking people.
Turkish Prime Minister, Ahmet Davutoglu, said; "Is it Turkey's fault
that it has borders with Syria?"
This comes as France announced on Monday that it would be deploying
10,000 policemen to protect synagogues and mosques, and other
sensitive areas, to boost security following last week's attacks.
