Three men were arrested at a small anti-lockdown protest in Cork city yesterday.
They were arrested during what was billed as a “peaceful assembly” on St Patrick’s Bridge at around 4pm which had been organised and promoted on social media calling for an “end to the lockdown”.
All three were taken to the Bridewell Garda Station where they were charged in relation to breaches of Covid regulations.
