Loyalist activist and Love Ulster campaigner Willie Frazer has been arrested in Belfast.

The 53-year-old was detained by the PSNI in the Newtownards Road area this afternoon.

It is understood he was arrested for a breach of bail conditions.

He was the organiser behind a proposed Love Ulster march planned through Dublin back in January of this year.

However this was postponed indefinitely. A group of protestors led by the Mr. Frazer - who organised a similar march in 2006 - planned to take a rally from Belfast to Dublin.

While back in February, a car was destroyed in an arson attack outside his home in Co. Armagh.

The 52-year-old is a leading member of the Ulster People's Forum, a group set up in the wake of the Union flag protests.
