French publisher Ernest Moret cleared of charges after arrest.

French publisher Ernest Moret, who was arrested using anti-terror laws upon arrival in London, will face no further action, according to the Metropolitan Police. Moret was searched under counter-terrorism legislation after travelling from Paris in April, bailed and later released under investigation. His employer claimed he was stopped over his alleged involvement in French pension age protests. The police used Schedule 7 of the Terrorism Act 2000 to search Moret, which gives them wide powers to search people at border crossings to check if they are involved in terrorism.
