The woman said she was forced to drop her trousers so the security officers could see her stoma

A Belfast cancer survivor said she was left 'humiliated' and 'in tears' after she claims security staff at Manchester Airport forced her to drop her trousers and expose her stoma bag.

"I went through the x-ray machine and then was told to go over to a woman who would pat me down, which was fine," Colette told the Manchester Evening News . "I told her I have a stoma and you can probably feel it. She then told me to follow her." She told the M.E.N she was led to a private room where two other security staff told her they 'had' to search her and 'it is what it is' - despite the fact Colette had never had a problem at any other airport.

Manchester Airport said the full-body scanner only highlighted abnormalities, so it is necessary for them to then search the area more thoroughly. They added previous feedback from travellers showed they preferred to touch their stoma themselves, rather than have someone else touch it.
