Police have released images of six men they want to identify following disorder at an anti-immigration protest in Portsmouth that left seven officers injured.
The investigation concerns violence at Eastney Marina on September 6, following the arrival of a small boat carrying asylum seekers.
Around 200 demonstrators were involved.
Hampshire Police says seven officers were injured and property belonging to the Coastguard and Border Force was damaged.
Investigators are now seeking the public’s help to identify six men pictured during the disorder.
A 42-year-old man has separately been charged with violent disorder and assaulting a police constable. Those charges have not yet been determined by a court.
Police say they continue to examine extensive footage from the demonstration and are investigating threats directed at officers and staff from partner agencies.
A government that fails to control Britain’s borders should face political opposition.
