London arrests amid coronation celebrations: Dozens detained for disrupting public order and causing public nuisance

London saw a surge in arrests during the coronation celebrations on Saturday, as police declared a “low tolerance” for disruptive behavior. More than 50 people were arrested for offenses such as hindering public order and conspiracy to create a public nuisance. Even anti-monarchy protesters, including Republic’s head Graham Smith, were detained after their demonstration in Trafalgar Square. While human rights groups expressed concern over the arrests of peaceful protesters, police defended their actions, emphasizing their duty to maintain a proportionate response in light of the once-in-a-generation event. King Charles III rode to and from Buckingham Palace amidst thousands of spectators following his official coronation at Westminster Abbey.
