What you've said is that he threatened you for obstruction, surely this new law is about 'illegal gathering', which would be different.
You should consider yourselves lucky that you had one of the more observant policeman that must have noticed you were pregnant or perhaps he would have threatened you all with 'soliciting' instead!
Fancy a very strange time dearie?
