Bung Mokhtar takes issue with 'sexually stimulating' airport pat-downs

Bung Mokhtar (BN-Kinabatangan) questioned why Malaysia Airport Holdings Berhad (MAHB) did not use handheld scanners for passengers who had triggered metal detectors at security checkpoints, but resorted to manual pat-downs instead.
