Oliver Barker Vormawor, Convener of Fix the Country, has been arrested for the second time, this time for an unknown offence.

A member of the Fix the Country campaigns, Felicity Nelson, one of the group’s c who disclosed this to the media on her face book page said Oliver was picked up on Tuesday morning by Police officers while on his way to the court.

“He has a court hearing today. The Police officer asked him to stop and told him he is under arrest. So, he [Barker-Vormawor] asked, ‘why am I under arrest?’ the Police said, ‘your rights are curtailed when you are under arrest.

“So, we don’t know where he is; we don’t know who has arrested him, we don’t know why he’s been arrested. Basically, that’s what is going on,” she said.

On the Movement’s Facebook page, a post read: “Oliver arrested again. A police officer told him his rights are curtailed as soon as he was arrested. We are not safe.”
