Sniffer dogs to wear ‘Muslim’ bootees

[Sweetpea]

Police sniffer dogs will have to wear bootees when searching the homes of Muslims so as not to cause offence.
Guidelines being drawn up by the Association of Chief Police Officers (Acpo) urge awareness of religious sensitivities when using dogs to search for drugs and explosives. The guidelines, to be published this year, were designed to cover mosques but have been extended to include other buildings.
Where Muslims object, officers will be obliged to use sniffer dogs only in exceptional cases. Where dogs are used, they will have to wear bootees with rubber soles. “We are trying to ensure that police forces are aware of sensitivities that people can have with the dogs to make sure they are not going against any religious or cultural element within people’s homes. It is being addressed and forces are working towards doing it,” Acpo said.

Islamic injunctions warn Muslims against contact with dogs, which are regarded as “unclean”.

What's next? The option to deny the police access if you have explosives on the premises and don't want them found?

Perhaps all us heathens will end up wearing them.

ACPO, as the name suggests, is made up of career coppers who have birdshit all over their shoulders and couldn't investigate their way out of a carrier bag.

I'd give that suggestion the credence it deserves.
