A Christian street preacher arrested for saying ‘God bless you’ to protesters at a Palestinian demonstration claims that police are trying to gag his freedom of speech after arresting him 16 times.
Shaun O’Sullivan says he plans to sue Wiltshire Police after being cleared of racial harassment following a six-day trial in Crown Court, at an estimated cost of £20,000 at the taxpayer’s expense.
Mr O’Sullivan, 36, preaches at Swindon’s evangelical ‘Awaken’ church and on the streets to homeless and addicts on the fringe of society, as he once was.
