Limiting police search powers could leave children more vulnerable, says former police chief constable'Any strip search, particularly for a young person, is very traumatising.' Former GMP chief constable Sir Peter Fahy tells krishgm strip searches are traumatising but argues if police powers were curtailed it could leave young people more vulnerable. krishgm The guy was just making stuff up, don't invite him on again, was ridiculous and offensive. krishgm What happened to evidence based policing? How is it proportionate to strip search a child because someone thought they could smell cannabis? The bar for an intimate search of a minor should be extremely high indeed, the resulting psychological damage caused must be immense. krishgm Describing this police action 'child abuse' was not helpful. Can I ask this? If a child HAS items (drugs or weapons) concealed on them, a police officer suspects it but does NOTHING, and the child is then harmed by continuing their criminal behaviour. Where do you stand on that?
