Prison guards told a female lawyer to take off her bra so she could pass through metal detectors in a prison in southern France, prompting an outcry from a lawyers' group.
While trying to enter the Villefranche-sur-Saône prison in Grenoble, the woman could not make it through the security gates without setting off the buzzer.
