A Bollywood heart-throb has made a mockery of an invasive new airport security system set to be introduced in Australia.
The British transport secretary said last week images taken by new full-body X-ray scanners, which capture in detail the human anatomy, would be destroyed immediately and not pose a risk to travellers’ privacy.
But Indian actor Shahrukh Khan has inadvertently put paid to the government’s claims, telling BBC talk show host Jonathan Ross that he autographed printed scans of his own body for two female security officers.
“I came out [of the scanner] and then I saw these girls and they had these printouts,” Khan said.
“So I looked at them, I thought maybe it’s a form you’re supposed to [sign] … and you could see everything inside.
“And then I’ve autographed them for them.”
