CAN YOU BE ARRESTED FOR NOT WEARING A BRA IN PUBLIC ?.


Milly and her girlfriends have been planning a girls’ night out since the year began. When she was dressing up, the bra kept showing lines through her top so she decided not to wear one that night. Daisy, Milly’s friend, noticed it when they met and asked Milly about it, but Milly told her that, “it was her body, so could choose what to wear and what not to.”
When they reached the bar, the bouncer refused to let Milly in because he could see she had no bra and that it was against the law ‘mbu’ she was disturbing public peace. Milly got angry and up to now she wants to know if this is lawful.
 
WHAT DOES THE LAW SAY?

Although the law does not police what kind of bra or knicker you choose to wear or not wear, If some of these private parts get displayed in public, you may find yourself arrested for acting in an indecent manner.

Secondly certain institutions, bars and places have a certain dress code that they deem unacceptable either because the dress code does not reflect what they stand for, or exposes certain body parts including the chest area, thighs among others. These places have a right to limit who they can allow access as long as this is done in a discriminatory manner.
So, if you go to any of these places, and the dress code policy, follow it or else you may be denied entrance.
