The force previously said it was investigating assaults on five people - though victims hadn’t came forward.

Now, it has been confirmed that one man has been given conditional bail during the ongoing investigation - with two others being voluntarily interviewed.

A spokesperson for West Midlands Police said: "Our investigation into a number of assaults that took place at the Reform UK National Conference at the NEC continues.
