A 76-year-old man has been charged with concealing his identity by wearing a burka at an anti-immigration protest in Portsmouth.

Timothy Miller, of Sherwood Avenue in Hedge End, Southampton, is accused of wearing or using an item to conceal his identity at a protest.

He will appear at Portsmouth Magistrates’ Court on Monday.

The force also said David Kenny McNally of Winchester Road, Portsmouth, has been charged with wilful obstruction of a highway and attempted criminal damage.

Mr McNally, 33, will appear at the same court on Thursday, October 29.

A 16-year-old boy from Waterlooville who was arrested on suspicion of violent disorder over a protest at Eastney Marina on September 6 has been bailed until December 12.

Anti-migrant and anti-racism protesters faced off in the city centre on Saturday.

Police used powers under the Crime and Policing Act to restrict face coverings following anti-immigration protests featuring masked men in Portsmouth and Dover last weekend.
