North Yorkshire Police said on Tuesday (25) night that they had arrested four suspects who broke into the home of UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak in the village of Kirby Sixton in the north of England.
The four, whose identities have not been released, were removed from the property and detained for trespassing. According to police, they are a 52-year-old man from London, a 43-year-old from Bolton, a 21-year-old from Manchester and a 20-year-old from Chichester.
The intruders are at a police station while an illegal entry into Sunak’s house is being investigated. The incident occurred in the midst of campaigning for the British general election on July 4.
Youth Demand, a group focused on political and climate activism, released a video after the episode showing a young man trespassing on the prime minister’s property and defecating in a lake.
In the publication, the group said the move was a “parting gift” to the Prime Minister and the Conservative government.
Activists have been vocally protesting against arms exports to Israel and the UK’s environmental policies, with one of their main agendas calling for Sunak’s government to cancel oil and gas licences.
