The far-right activist known as Tommy Robinson has been arrested by British police on suspicion of grievous bodily harm after a man was allegedly assaulted at a London railway station.
Video from the scene of the alleged assault, which showed a 64-year-old man on the ground, also recorded Robinson appearing to claim he had acted in self-defence.
The injured man was released from hospital on Thursday. Police are understood to be treating him as a victim, not a suspect, at this stage. Police have said he was admitted to hospital “with serious injuries which are not thought to be life-threatening”.
He was also convicted of illegally entering the US under the name Andrew McMaster, and has used other names.
