A London court on Friday threw out a terrorism case against a member of provocative Northern Irish rap group Kneecap over a technical error.
Liam O’Hanna, 27, was accused of displaying a flag of the Iran-backed Lebanese militant group Hezbollah at a gig, but judge Paul Goldspring ruled the “proceedings against him were instituted unlawfully and are null” and told him he was “free to go”, to cheers from his supporters in court.
