A popular YouTube comedian is claiming he was a victim of racial profiling after he was forced to remove his turban during a security check at a San Francisco-area airport.

Jasmeet Singh, the Brampton-based Sikh comedian better known online as “Jus Reign”, shared his story on social media Sunday night.

so the @tsa made me take off my turban in extra screening or they said I wouldn't be able to be let through to catch my flight — Jasmeet Singh (@JusReign) February 22, 2016

Singh tweeted that he was taken into a private screening room where he was body searched and his turban put through the x-ray machine.

so I get into the private screening and take it off and they body search me and put my turban through another X-ray machine because "safety" — Jasmeet Singh (@JusReign) February 22, 2016

After finding nothing on his person, Singh wanted to use a mirror to tie his turban back on but was told by security he would have to use the public washroom in the terminal.

after finding absolutely nothing wrong because a turban is just cloth and the whole thing is stupid I ask for a mirror to tie it back again — Jasmeet Singh (@JusReign) February 22, 2016

Turbans are mandatory in public for Sikh men.

Singh mentions that he has had other friends who have decided not to wear their turbans to the airport, in order to prevent these types of instances from happening.

FAM WHAT WAS THE POINT IN TAKING ME TO THE PRIVATE ROOM IF U JUST TELL ME TO WALK OUT TO THE NEAREST RESTROOM TO PUT IT BACK ON AGAIN — Jasmeet Singh (@JusReign) February 22, 2016

This is the second Sikh entertainer this month who endured a public airport encounter involving the religious headwear.

Sikh movie star Waris Ahluwalia was banned from boarding a flight from Mexico to New York when he refused to remove his turban during a security check.

it's just super annoying having to deal with this and also @tsa put mirrors in your room if you tell me to take it off it's not that hard — Jasmeet Singh (@JusReign) February 22, 2016

The TSA has not comment on the incident.
