Scotland Yard has agreed to pay five protesters £85,000 in damages for assault and false imprisonment.

The group had been demonstrating outside the Mexican embassy in London in 2006 when they were held.

The Metropolitan Police has written a letter of apology to the protesters and admitted any force used to arrest them was "assault and battery".
