I am Indian and dark skinned, this happened to today the 4th time. My hand bag was checked . None of the white peoples hand bags were checked. I want to know why?? Is this Aldi’s policy to only check hand bags of black people?

Desired resolution: Aldi is racist and I will not accept this behaviour. I will publish this on social media. I did not take this lightly. I questioned the aldi lady at the counter today i.e. 21st oct between 11am to 12noon. When confronted, her answer was they check according to the size of the hand bag. I had a normal size ladies shoulder hand bag. People can even put small lollies into their ha nd bags. Rule for one should be rule for all. This was attack on coloured people.
Problem: Bag checks only for dark-skinned shoppers
