Five Arrested in Devon over G20 'Stunt'

category devon | protests | news report author Monday March 30, 2009 14:22author by Goto Report this post to the editors

It seems that 5 people were planning some kind of 'stunt' for the G20 and they have been arrested under the terrorism legislation. It will be interesting if this is a real arrest or simply more hype to justify the crackdown on dissent as the global system falls off a cliff.

In a statement, Devon and Cornwall police confirmed five people were being held for offences under the Terrorism Act. The three men, aged 25, 19 and 16, and two women, both aged 20, all live in Plymouth and the surrounding area. Police said they were arrested between Friday, March 27 and Sunday, March 29.

File under terrorising dissent? We'll see..
