Hasna Aitboulahcen became the West’s first female suicide bomber after blowing herself up when police raided her Paris apartment yesterday following fierce shoot out.

The 26-year-old is understood to have acted as a decoy by screaming “help me, help me” from the window of the flat in Saint Denis on the outskirts of Paris as anti-terror officers swooped.

Now it has emerged the female terrorist was actually a booze-loving girl dubbed the 'Cowgirl.'

Sources close to her said she drank, dyed her hair blonde and dressed in jeans and cowboy hats. She had no interest in religion and never read the Qu'Ran.

All of a sudden, a month ago shde started wearing a Muslim veil and traditional dress, say friends.

Aitboulahcen pulled the trigger on her suicide vest killing herself and the police dog Diesel instantly.
