![]() |
Ater the failed attack on flight 253 landing in Detroit the Dutch decided to use body scanners to scan all passengers leaving for the US. Besides the body scanners that were already tested, the Dutch authorities orders 20 extra scanners. Swiss TV wants to see how the body scanner works in practice, if the radiation is dangerous and if privacy is protected. A specialist and a spokesperson from the airport explain how the new machine works and terrorism expert Edwin Bakker gives his views. The latter emphasises that the anti-terror measures work pretty well, since the attack on flight 253 failed.
Activities: research, book crew, direction and interviews with airport spokesperson and a Dutch terrorism expert, accompany satellite feed.
