In Kojaeli, Turkey, the muezin of a historic mosque, which had arrived for the morning prayer, suspected something was wrong when he heard noises from inside the building.
At first he thought it was a burglary, but the security camera footage examination revealed a completely different picture. According to the footage, a man and a woman had entered the mosque and had love contacts in the room.
The muezin immediately alerted the police, which initiated an investigation. Through security cameras recordings, authorities managed to identify the two suspects and arrest the couple soon.
