Kneecap’s Liam O’Hanna, 27, released on bail as court adjourns terror charge case
Kneecap’s Liam O’Hanna has been released on bail as the terror charge case has been adjourned until August 20.
O’Hanna appeared today at Westminster Magistrates Court where he was granted unconditional bail and will appear again in person at the court in August.
The 27-year-old from Belfast was charged in May by postal requisition with displaying a flag in support of Hezbollah, a proscribed terrorist organisation.
The charge relates to an incident on November 21 last year at the O2 Forum in Kentish Town, London, where O’Hanna is alleged to have displayed a flag in a public place in a manner that could reasonably be interpreted as showing support for Hezbollah.
The Metropolitan Police’s Counter Terrorism Command was alerted to an online video from the event on April 22.
