How Often does this happen?

listening to the news today, one of the guys suspected of killing that unfortunate policewoman in bradford, has reportedly returned to somalia using a female passport and wearing a veil. don,t know if this report is accurate,wasn,t aware you could go through customs wearing one. but this begs the question wether the guy has or hasn,t. if he can/did that, how many TERRORISTS or BOMBERS ETC have done the same?
 
i heard the same thing on the news cash, apparently they never check over here but are supposed to check at the other end, its a loada b****x if you ask me,like they said...we seem to have open borders,no one's checked in and no one's checked out :(
 
Thing is though if there is a woman going through customs with the veil etc on and there is only male customs officers on then because she isnt allowed to show her face to another man except her husband or family member then she will get through. The only way to do is to make sure there are at least 3 women customs officers on and to check every woman going through - wonder though how long that would take for boarding?

soz jen thats NOT the only way to do! it should be illegal to pass through any customs anywhere hiding your face.
 
Did I hear correctly that it's believed this guy has gone back to Somalia? The country he couldn't be sent back to when he came out of jail because his life would be in danger there! :mad:
 
I agree with you cashy.. The veil should be banned from being worn going through any airport etc in the world and if this does turn out to be the case then maybe it will shake up our government and stop them taking the bloody soft aproach

yeh cherokee but wether it is the case or not the government need a bloody good shake IF veils ARE allowed to be worn through customs, what the hells the use of a passport photograph?:mad:
 
(think) It Said On News He Woud Have Gone Through 5 Diff Forms Of Security Which Imho One Is Bad Enough Let Alone 5.......
 
just another observation.;) when a thread like this is live our political members seem very conspicuous by their abscence. back on thread now 5 is ridiculous,that bit i never heard.

im here! but then again im not seen as political am i!!! :D

I dont know how he managed to get through 5 - i couldnt even get checked in before i got dragged off to a little room!!!
 
its a while since i went through th airport ..but im sure they gave 5 examples on news although i may be wrong and i can only think of 3 at this end and one at the other where your photo should be checked..
1..checkin
2..passport control
3..boarding plane
and other end at customs
 
When i fly to ireland i used to be stopped all over the place and to be ready to show my id. not just at check in they used to stop you and ask to see id and your ticket at the check in, when you were going through to the departure lounge, then stop you again when you left that, going down the concourse and then stop you again going down the stairs even though you were within sight of the last check in!
 
Im staying away because I havn't watched the news, but if it is how I understand it to be from this thread, well.. its just shocking.
To be honest I don't think people should be able to cover their face in very few public places really. Heck even in shops, people could steal things and hide their face to protect their identity if caught on CCTV so im quite against it really.

when i came back from barcelona last year a woman with a veil went through without removing it for identification


also watched a program where they followed a famouse reporter crossing boarders in the far east interviewing various gurila groups / freedom fighters but because he was british he wold have been killed or taken hostage so they dressed him up in womens gear with a veil etc and they didnt even look at him twice

forget the reporters name hes a war corespondant with white hair and a bit chubby

its a very common metod of smuggling wanted me across boarders over there so it dosnt surprise me if it was used to get a wanted man out of the uk especialy with how scared authorities are to ask for a veil to be removed
 
Because we bow to PC power on this it will happen on a regular basis. Even if a half doz terrorist got in and bombed the gaff they still wouldnt ask for them to be removed in case human rights are violated.
 
come on Willow be honest you know as well as anyone that the only way Chav can get into a country is being smuggled in, who in their right min would let him in voluntarily :D :D
