🇬🇧Former UK Deputy Defence Secretary Ivor Kaplin was arrested while attempting to meet a 15-year-old boy he had met online.

The ex-politician was provoked into the meeting by activists who were posing as teenagers and "hunting" paedophiles. They were broadcasting the meeting with Kaplin on social media. The day before, the activists claim, the man had sent "inappropriate" messages to the person posing as the teenager.

Kaplin categorically denies that he intended to meet the teenager, and during the stream he repeats: "I did nothing." Later, the police announced Kaplin's arrest and the start of an investigation.
