Divisional Commander of Glasgow City Centre and West Division, Ch Supt Val Thomson said: "Increased patrols will continue in the city centre throughout the festive period in response to the increased number of people socialising within the area.
"Our commitment remains to keep people safe whilst they enjoy the city and I hope that the swift arrest in relation to this matter assures people that we make every effort to do so."
She added: "People should come into the city and relax and enjoy themselves but I would also urge them to continue to take the basic steps to ensure their own safety.
"Those are, to make sure someone knows where they are and how they are getting home, to remain with friends throughout the evening and if they find themselves separated from their friends, to ensure they remain in the well lit streets and take the most direct route to where they want to be."
