A Liberal Democrat councillor took part in a pro-Palestine protest at a police station, a court has heard.

Imran Latif, 45, walked into Cardiff Bay police station in June and chained himself to another protester at the front desk, a court has heard.

The councillor, who has sat on Cardiff council since 2022, pleaded guilty at Cardiff magistrates’ court to locking himself to a person to cause significant disturbance at a police station. He was acquitted of one other charge.

Despite his conviction, he is set to continue his role as councillor for the Penylan ward.
