Child Q’s name and identity have been preserved. She is now fighting to ensure safety for other children.
The Case of Child Q has sparked a racism scandal in recent days. It started when a Black teenage girl was subjected to a strip search at a school.
In 2020, a 15-year-old girl was wrongly accused of carrying cannabis. Then, officers had performed a traumatic search by exposing her body parts.
As of now, hundreds of activists have protested against the misconduct. They are demanding civil action against the school and Met police officers.
Following an official investigation on March 16, 2022, the search was concluded as “Unjustified”. Also, the incident is likely to have a racism factor.
