The UK judges have stated that they will jail passive observers of the riots as a matter of policy, so it's not just that one guy: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/

  More specifically they're jailing people who were at the riots but who claim they were only passive observers. This is standard pre-trial detention because pretty serious crimes were committed. Obviously if its found at their trial that they didn't commit any crime then they won't be going to prison.
