Protester Restrained Trying To 'Arrest' Blair
This is a quote from an article published at Sky News January 29 2010:
'An anti-war protester has been restrained by police after trying to perform a citizen's arrest on Tony Blair at the Iraq Inquiry.
Grace McCann was held back by police as the former prime minister left the QEII Centre, after a day of giving evidence to the inquiry panel.
She was inspired by a website, arrestblair.org, offering a reward to people "attempting a peaceful citizen's arrest" on Mr Blair "for crimes against peace".
Ms McCann told Sky News: "I believe very strongly that the Iraq war was illegal.
"I agree with the Stop The War Coalition that he is a war criminal and that is the basis on which I would have arrested him."
Earlier, demonstrators paraded a coffin, wore handcuffs and displayed fake blood on their hands, as they named soldiers killed in the conflict and called for Mr Blair to be arrested.'
