They obviously flagged up for something after being watched for a while, or id like to think that was the case anyway.

Like those reporters who got nicked under "anti terror legislation" for being somewhere near an arms fair.
They weren't buying C4 on eBay ffs.
That's the thing with police states, they don't want to nick completely innocent people. They want to be able to punish people for being guilty of something... where they might actually have just embarrassed the state a bit.
Like having a demonstration in a certain square in 1989?
Or even if someone has embarrassed you and there isn't some trumped up anti-terror law to hand... just dig up any crap to nick them for!
