Published At: Tue 05 Mar 2024
A vulnerable girl in a young offenders institution twice had her clothes removed under restraint by an all-male team of prison officers, a report says.
The inmate had been stripped to stop her using her clothes to harm herself at Wetherby Young Offender Institution.
The incident emerged in a report highly critical of the facility, which houses some of the UK's most complex children.
