Four people were arrested on Tuesday, September 16, after images of U.S. President Donald Trump and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein were projected onto Windsor Castle, where King Charles is hosting Trump during his state visit to Britain.
Trump arrived in the UK late on Tuesday for his unprecedented second state visit and was formally welcomed by King Charles today, September 17, at Windsor Castle for a day of official ceremonies.
Earlier on Tuesday, protesters unfurled a large banner showing Trump and Epstein near the castle before projecting multiple images of the pair onto one of its towers. According to police, four adults were arrested on suspicion of malicious communications following what they described as an “unauthorised projection” and “public stunt.” The suspects remain in custody.
The protest also included the projection of a birthday letter Trump allegedly wrote to Epstein more than 20 years ago, which Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives released on September 8. The White House has denied the letter’s authenticity. Images of Epstein’s victims, news coverage, and police reports were also projected onto the castle walls.
