Brits pickpocketing in Turkey? (look closely at the

Saturday evening, November 8th, 2014. Two Brit tourists in Antalya Airport, Turkey get approached by what I think is an Italian family. The family are accusing them of some kind of theft. The Brits are outraged as the guy tries to forcibly search them.
It was unclear if the family were just accusing random strangers or not at first but if you look very carefully at the 2:20 mark you can see the the man finally grabs a purse away from the Brit guy and his lady instantly recognises it and checks to see if the contents are still there. She does this in plain view of the Brit guy but he doesn't demand the return of the purse which kind of implies that he knows it was theirs in the first place.
Who knows, maybe the Brits, ahem, picked it up by mistake. Either way, they are lucky the family took things into their own hands because after they recovered their property they left it at that. If they had asked airport security to search the couple instead then, having four them with 'misplaced' property, they would have been spending the night in a Turkish jail cell.
Sorry for the shaky cam at the start. It stabilises after a time.

I can't tell who is trying to rob who.

at around 2.20 the man appears to take something out of his pocket and throw it then he turns and the other man grabs a purse and hands it to his wife

I had a similar incident happen to me in Cuba, another passenger took my 18 ft fishing rod and insisted that it was his because it was with his baggage. I physically took my fishing rod back and than he insisted I took his baggage. I just scratched my head as he walked away....LOL .....not my fishing rod you don't.

Interesting, the more I watch it the more the body language looks like the Brits are being harassed and the guy even seems to march off to get security but the video clearly shows at the 2:20 mark the family finally grab a purse back from the Brit guy and openly wave it back at them and check the contents and he doesn't act as if his own property has been taken and that seems pretty conclusive to me.
