Awful! Male Police Strips-search Female Football Fans In Russia by dafe303: 11:33am On Aug 06, 2014
There is outrage in Russia after female football supporters were strip-searched by male police officers before a game in the city of Kazan, which is supposed to be the 2018 World Cup host city.
One fan Ekaterina Stepanove wrote a blog post about the "humiliation" suffered by her and fellow visiting female fans from Spartak Moscow before their match with local side Rubin Kazan.

According to Stephanova, "girls were forced to strip, including the removal of their underwear." Police officers told her that the search were necessary as she could have a bomb on her but she refused to be searched in such manner.
While narrating her experience she said:

"I was told to strip after already scanning my ticket into the ground, but after refusing, I was then searched in the usual way with dirty gloves over my t-shirt and gloves. At the next security point, I was again told that I had not been properly searched, but I refused to be searched any further and eventually got into the stadium. I saw other girls being undressed completely, including underwear."
"I encourage all the girls who were forced to UnCloth, violating their constitutional rights by offending their honor and dignity, to apply to the official fan club of Spartak and Moscow for legal aid. The more statement from us, the more likely it is the police will treat us with respect. Do not stay away. This applies to all."

While the secretary of the Russian League Alexander Meitin confirmed that the league and Spartak have both complained over the rough treatment the female fans received, the president of the Republic of Tararstan, Rustam Minnikhanov doesn't see anything wrong with the act.
And has told the fans that they should expect similar treatment in the future.
Minnikhanov said: "All actions taken by the police were tough but absolutely legal. And the next time this situation arises, the Tararstan police will do the same thing."
