The arrest comes just days after The Sun prompted
a security shake-up at Sandhurst military academy after an undercover
reporter from the paper walked unchallenged around the grounds for
several hours with a fake bomb. The reporter was not arrested on that
occasion and left the academy with video footage showing Prince Harry
training.
