Evidence of plain clothes cops?



A man in distress, was arrested by this plain clothed man in blue and taken into the building behind him around 2pm, july 4th, Edinburgh. He said his name was Jauies Amijo, or something like that. A lot of plain clothed young people were entering this building and showing ID cards on the door. SALTRE COURT opposite the castle (castle road maybe) is not a safe place to be. Helen BH

plain clothes people are most likely employees

Saltire Court houses a number of financial and legal institutions. Employees will have been asked to dress down for the day - hence the plain clothed young people showing ID are extremely likely to be employees, rather than police.

looks like this office will have instructed their staff to come to work in casual plain cloths sort of thing.

they look like they are coming back from lunch.

as for the two at the door, they may be private security.

The young man arrested was alleged to have smashed three windows on the ground floor of the building.
