Raya Meredith is a prominent figure in the legal battle against the New South Wales Police regarding their controversial strip-search practices. As the lead plaintiff in a class action lawsuit, she has brought attention to the traumatic experiences faced by individuals during these searches, particularly at music festivals. Meredith's experience during a strip-search at Splendour in the Grass in 2018, which included being subjected to unnecessary humiliation and violation of privacy, has highlighted the broader issues of police accountability and the need for reform in policing practices.
