Victoria Police apologise for raid to gay nightclub

Victoria Police has apologised for the "extreme" and "disturbing" 1994 Tasty raid in which more than 450 patrons at a Melbourne gay club were strip-searched.
Acting Chief Commissioner Lucinda Nolan apologised on behalf of the force on Monday night to coincide with the 20th anniversary of the raid this week.
"The events that took place that night caused distress to people and had a significant impact on the relationship between Victoria Police and the wider LGBTI [lesbian, gay, bi-sexual, transgender and intersex] community," Acting Commissioner Nolan said.
