THREE protesters who blocked a road leading to the DSEI arms fair have been acquitted after a judge found their actions were reasonable.

Tim Hill, 32, Sarah Johnson, 23, and Rosie Sinfield, 28, all had a single charge of wilfully obstructing a highway dismissed at Stratford magistrates’ court today.

Huda Ammori, 23, had the same charge against her dismissed by district judge Jane McIvor after the prosecution closed its case earlier this week.
