The case of a 15-year-old girl strip-searched by police at her school “should horrify us all”, a government adviser has said.
Nimco Ali, an independent government adviser on tackling violence against women and girls, told the Sophy Ridge On Sunday show: “I think the idea of a child being strip-searched – be they female or male – should be something we shouldn’t be able to tolerate in this country.”
