"Cause great embarrassment!" Male tailors were asked to measure the bodies of female police officers, and a police officer in India was suspended

According to the Hindustan Times reported on the 8th, on Monday, a police officer in the Nellore district of Andhra Pradesh, India, was suspended because he was suspected of letting two male tailors measure the size of the uniform for female police cadets trained.

According to the report, the video and photos of the incident went viral and attracted criticism on social platforms, which made the Indian police very embarrassed. Police said that while no cases had been registered so far, the chief of police had been suspended for disciplinary violations.

Upon receiving the news, Rao, deputy chief of the Nellore Regional Police, and another inspector rushed to the scene to investigate the incident. Rao said: "The police officer in charge of the incident has been suspended. Only the seamstresses and the policewoman should oversee the whole process. ”

Rao also condemned civilians entering police stations and photographing and videotaping female trainees when they were sized. He asked: "This is equivalent to invading women's privacy." In addition, the police station prohibits outsiders from entering. The tailors are measuring the female patrol officers, so who is taking pictures of them? ”

It is reported that the police declined to name the officer. The work of sewing uniforms for female trainees was outsourced to a private agency, which sent male tailors to measure the dimensions.

Rao said the man who took the photo, took the video and shared it on social media has been identified and will be taken against him in accordance with the law.

Meanwhile, Anisha, the female president of the local party in Andhra Pradesh, the Town of Telugu Party, said that in the congress-led state government, even female police officers are not safe. Ramakrina, secretary of the Communist Party of India (CPI) and Indira, believes that the police in the Nellore region do not respect women. He asked, "It's very cruel to have a male tailor measure a female policeman. What can we say to ordinary women when policewomen are not safe themselves? ”
