They dont need no education


In December last year, a bunch of British students went on a rampage over excessive tuition fee. A famous scene from those protests is the pic on the bottom right, when Charles and Camilla were attacked. The other three photos are of the same person, who was handed a 16 month sentence for taking part in the protests. Why is this particular person (of the 100s who took part in the protest) the centre of media focus?

Check the comments section for the answers. Ameya, Achint and Arjun Variar (buzz) get it right.
