Woman turned away with lingerie

A Brazilian woman was turned away at Newcastle Airport because she carried luggage which only contained t-shirts, a dressing gown and lingerie. They were suspicious because the woman could not explain why she was visiting England. When they checked her passport, they found out she was turned away at Belfast City Airport three months earlier. They had checked her luggage there too and found several sexual paraphernalia and information about escort agencies and sex websites. They now suspect this woman of being involved in the sex industry.

I do not really know what to think of this. It is kind of strange to refuse someone because they think the person has something to do with the sex industrie. Other people (famous people) in that bussiness are allowed to fly to other countries right? So the woman should have thought of a good reason to come visit England, and then everything would have been all right. If the only reason for refusing her is, that she did not have a proper reason to come to England, than why is it all over the paper.

    An interesting choice of article and an interesting reaction too! You make a very good point. A clear summary with just a couple of mistakes in the reaction, well done.
