The British Sikh Police Association says Sikh officers cannot currently do such jobs, as their religion prohibits removing turbans to wear helmets.
But the organisation's chairman says he now intends to push for more research on suitable ballistic turban material.
I know it's a serious subject, but I just had to smirk...

I'd have preferred it if they'd at least called them bullet-proof instead of ballistic, I get visions of Sikh officers with guns sticking out of their Turbans now.
