George Clooney Handcuffed & Arrested In Washington, D.C. (PHOTO)
Actor George Clooney and his father Nick Clooney were arrested during a protest over the Sudan crisis in front of the Sudanese embassy in Washington, D.C on Friday morning (March 16).
The actor’s publicist told TMZ in a statement:
“They were protesting the violence committed by the government of Sudan on its own innocent men, women and children. They were demanding they allow humanitarian aid into the country before it becomes the largest humanitarian crisis in the world.”
Apparently, George is more than happy about being forced to wear a pair of handcuffs because his arrest draws attention to the crisis in Sudan. Hollywood using its powers for good.
A total of a dozen people were arrested, including congressmen, human rights defensors and a few Sudanese citizens, who were protesting against president Omar Al-Bashir for creating a humanitarian crisis by preventing food and aid from reaching the Nuba Mountains.
