Title: Concerns about a new type of IED
Post by: Staggerwing on August 23, 2013, 09:51:47 AM
Just ran across this in the Foreign Policy newsletter.

From the Hindustani Times: (http://www.hindustantimes.com/India-news/NewDelhi/Bomb-in-breast-implants-Suspicious-flyers-to-go-through-pat-down-checks/Article1-1111104.aspx):

QuoteThe Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) have been issued a directive to profile suspicious women flyers and subject them to remove their shirts for a pat-down check to see whether they are hiding explosives in their breast implants.

The latest directive comes after London's Heathrow Airport was put on terror alert amid fears that women fidayeen may enter with explosives hidden in breast implants.

Women guards in the frisking staff of the CISF will be carrying out these checks in an enclosure which the airport operator has been requested to provide.


I must confess that I checked the Duffleblog first before posting this...

That was murmured when we had the embassy shutdowns a couple of weeks back.

The dots I connected were that we were afraid of such an incident walking into them I guess.

Now going to see family will really be as painful as a full body cavity search
