Original Note:
NNN. There is no legitimate reason to keep POWs stripped of clothing during transportation, other than to humiliate. A strip search for weapons is done once. Article 18 of convention III states that clothing shall remain in POWs' possession. https://www.ohchr.org/en/instruments-mechanisms/instruments/geneva-convention-relative-treatment-prisoners-war
