Brian Haw Arrested
Peter Marshall | 30.10.2009 23:28 | Anti-militarism | Iraq
The arrest at around 7pm was witnessed by several of Brian's supporters in the square, one of whom filmed the event, as well as several photographers including myself who were present in the square for another protest.
This is not the first time that Brian Haw has been arrested, and throughout his protest he and his supporters have been subjected to considerable legal and illegal harassment by the police. The arresting officer is one against whom allegations have been made by the protesters of misconduct in previous incidents.
I expect that further details will be posted here shortly.
More pictures on Demotix shortly and My London Diary in a few days.

What has he been charged with?
If Brian has been hassled by the same cops before, he should bring a charge of harassment against them.
Shame on the police.
Solidarity with Brian.
