Anti-nuclear arms protesters from Oxford were arrested in Scotland following a blockade of the controversial Trident submarine base at Faslane.
Strathclyde police have confirmed that about 50 people were arrested for minor offences during protests yesterday. Six are believed to be from Oxford.
Gawain Little, 21, who lives in central Oxford, was among those detained.
Mr Little, a member of the National Committee of Youth and Student CND, said in a statement: "We did our duty as international citizens by highlighting the existence of these illegal and immoral weapons of mass destruction."
