LONDON – The climate change protester who “slimed” Lord Mandelson with green custard has been arrested, police have said.
Scotland Yard said Leila Deen (29) attended a central London police station “by arrangement” yesterday. She was released on bail until early April.
The anti-Heathrow expansion campaigner accosted the Business Secretary outside the Royal Society in London on Friday morning.
She threw a cupful of custard in his face, before walking away unchallenged.
Lord Mandelson expressed “surprise” that Ms Deen had been able to bypass security, and added that he had suffered a rash after the incident. – (PA)
