Ernest Moret awarded damages after being wrongly detained under Terrorism Act 2000, questioned about political beliefs, and having phone and laptop confiscated for weeks.
Metropolitan police settles claim with Moret, paying five-figure sum and legal fees, after admitting stop was unnecessary and disproportionate, following an inquiry criticizing the use of counter-terrorism powers.
