A HUMILIATED Sikh holiday-maker forced against his religion to remove
his turban in public at airport security has belatedly received an
apology from the authorities.

Jaswant Singh Judge was passing through security control with his wife
before boarding an Iberia flight home when he was asked to remove his
turban by security staff at Tenerife South Airport.

Along with his shoes, belt and belongings, Mr Judge, 53, of Rosemary
Drive, Redbridge, was told to put his turban through the conveyor belt
scanner.

He asked to speak to the chief security officer at the airport who
also insisted that Mr Judge would have to remove his turban in front
of other passengers.

"I explained I am a Sikh and it is humiliating to remove our turban in
public," said Mr Judge following the incident in March.

"We are supposed to cover our hair which is very sacred to us
