Met Police to be questioned over coronation protest arrests
But opposition politicians and protest groups have raised concerns officers were heavy-handed and impinged on the right to protest.
"I think it's really worrying that these arrests have happened," added the Green Party leader in the Assembly."It felt like for someone who was trying to protest, and trying to do it by the book, it was very difficult to understand what the rules were." The change to the law means demonstrators face up to a year in jail for blocking roads, airports and railways, and lets officers stop and search anyone they suspect is planning to cause disruption.
