Back in October 2009, a handful of animal rights activists were demonstrating outside Zippos circus, due to their use of performing animals. Two were arrested, allegedly for breach of Section 14 Public order act and Section 5. Basically their crime seems to have been having a better understanding of the law than Mr Wragg. Charges were dropped at virtually the first opportunity, at the pre-trial review in December.
Speaking about his arrest and payout, one nouveaux riche vegan told SchNEWS, “This was very typical of animal rights demos in Cambridge - the police are usually very unaware of the actual law and when they do know it they twist it”.
