| The photograph of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed was taken in 2003 shortly after his capture during a raid in Pakistan. |
A Turkish cosmetics company has used a former al-Qaeda "mastermind" as the model to advertise its hair removal cream.
The advert shows a photograph of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed – known as the "principle architect" of the September 11 attacks – wearing a baggy white T-shirt that exposes a hairy neck and shoulders.
Above the photograph, the advert's slogan reads: "The hair will not go away because you keep waiting!"
The cosmetics company said that the use of the image was accidental, saying they had not known the photograph showed a member a member of al-Qaeda. » | Ruth Sherlock, Gaziantep | Wednesday, November 05, 2014
