A 30-year-old woman, named Shruthi Basappa was going to Iceland from Bengaluru was asked to remove her clothes for the security check. The woman after facing an incidence expressed her wrath via social media giant Facebook. Foreign Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj is probing the situation.

As per the reports, Shruthi wrote a message on the Facebook, "Are brown people not suspicious if we have European partners or co-travellers?" 

She also described the whole incident occurred with her saying, "I was asked to remove the dress I was wearing. Yes. Remove my clothes. Is this the new norm? Isn't it enough to always be the one random person picked out of line that now I need to wrap my head around the fact that I might be asked to strip? Do I need to wax my legs? Do I need to carefully put together a special 'for travel lingerie' set that has nothing to do with seducing my husband but more about hiding the outrage, anger, humiliation and disgust that is an inevitable part of travelling through airports?"

Responding to her post, Frankfurt airport replied, "I am shocked to hear that. Of course, it is not the standard protocol reserved for anyone. We would appreciate your detailed feedback. What happened exactly? When and where was it?"
