But I don't quite understand what the police meant by "standard operating procedure". Is getting a woman to strip with the windows wide open a standard operating procedure? I heard that those who saw the unedited version said the woman was actually looking into the camera as she put on her brassiere. If that is true, was the policewoman in cahoots with her male colleagues by giving the latter a free show? Or was it the intention of the policewoman to shame the woman detainee in this manner? If the woman is aware that she was being taped, is that not sexual assault (outraging modesty) and harrassment? If not, is this not voyeurism, an offence punishable under the Penal Code? Does this happen to all other women detainees? How degrading and despicable indeed! - Roger Tan Mon, 28 Nov 2005 11:52:13 +0100
