R (on the application of Dowsett) v Secretary of State for Justice [2013] EWHC 687 (Admin), [2013] All ER (D) 270 (Mar)
The secretary of state’s policy that male prisoners could be subjected to a rub-down search conducted by a female prison officer other than when his case fell within exceptions based on religious or cultural grounds was not discriminatory and did not breach either Art 8 or Art 14 of the European Convention on Human Rights.
