A crowd of protesters cheered as two men were released after being detained by UK Home Office officials in Glasgow, Scotland, on May 13.

The crowd had surrounded the van after the Border Agency conducted an early raid on a property on Kenmure Street in the Pollokshields area of the city, local media reported.

Police Scotland said in a statement that the men were released “to protect the public health and well-being of all people involved in the detention and subsequent protest in Kenmure Street.”
