Transport police update strip search policy after landmark trans Supreme Court decision
Trans officers within British Transport Police can no longer conduct intimate
searches of women following a Supreme Court ruling, GB News can reveal.
Guidance to staff seen by this broadcaster said that, as an interim position,
any "same sex searches are to be undertaken in accordance with the
biological sex of the detainee."
Deputy Chief Constable Alistair Sutherland told BTP officers that the force
would provide "further clarity" once it "had a chance to digest the judgment"
handed down at the Supreme Court yesterday, which ruled that trans women
are not legally women.
