DAMAGES paid to a woman brutally arrested at a Sarah Everard vigil will be split with pro-Palestine protesters “who have also been victims of police.”

The Metropolitan Police has agreed to pay £10,000 in damages to Jennifer Edmunds, who was detained and charged with breaching Covid restrictions at the Clapham Common gathering on March 13 2021.

The charges were dropped 15 months later and Ms Edmunds sued the police for breaching her human rights, false imprisonment, assault, misfeasance in public office and malicious prosecution.
