I was actually there Fiona, but arrived a few minutes after the police first approached this man. ( we were in the Argo cafe bar when someone came in and told us he was being arrested) What I can confirm is that he asked them to read him his rights aloud , twice, and we did not hear the police do that. He was already half in the van and they then pushed him in and closed the door. I believe he wanted it recorded on film, but I do not know what had been said prior to our arrival.
