X-ray that A-rab!
The Finnish airport operator, Finavia, may begin scanning travellers based on their religion or nationality. Speaking in an interview with Sunnuntaisuomalainen, Finavia security chief Jyri Vikström said the company may start profiling passengers if Finnish airports begin using body scanners. The profiling would look at people's behaviour at the airport, but also at their religion and nationality. Mr Vikström did not see profiling as an equality issue. However, Finavia later said in a brief statement that the company had no guidelines in place for selecting people to be body scanned based on nationality or religion. http://www.helsinkitimes.fi/htimes/domestic-news/general/9498-finland-may-profile-passengers-for-airport-body-scans-.html
