A female commentator getting groped by a security guard while she was screened has made several people angry. The journalist had her dress lifted aggressively by the female officer while she patted her on her genitals under the pretext of getting screened.

Angela Rye, 37, decided to take matters into her hands and posted the video on Twitter for the whole world to see. The CNN commentator recorded the video to question the screening process of the authorities and whether it actually helped in curbing terrorist attacks.

According to CNN, she had already gone to the metal detector and a backscatter X-ray machine and was a clear traveller. While the security guard dismissed the accusation saying that it was a simple backhanded pat, the security manager also told her she would miss her flight if she did not follow the procedure. The security agency was criticised and the video has now gone viral.
