A SUICIDE bomber ‘disguised as a priest’ killed three people in an attack targeting a Christian leader.

The attacker was trying to kill the head of the Syriac Orthodoc Church, Patriarch Ignatius Aphrem II.

The jihadi was stopped at a security checkpoint outside a hall in Qamishli, a city in northeastern Syria.

The bomber detonated his bomb when he was being questioned by Sutoro security officials, killing himself, three guards and wounding five others.
