London, UK. 23rd April, 2016. After protesting outside Selfridges, the protesters from Kono district in Sierra Leone protest on Sloane Square against Tiffanys after police told them they could not protest on on the wide pavement outside the shop. There seemed to be no reason other than lessening the impact of the protest for the police to move them. Why UK police should take the side of Tiffany and support illegal diamond mining by Octea that defies all national and international legal norms and ethics is hard to understand.
