Kneecap ‘will not be silent’ over appeal against decision to end terror case

The case against Kneecap’s Liam Og O hAnnaidh (centre, in keffiyeh), was thrown out by the chief magistrate following a technical error in the way the charge against him was brought (PA)

Kneecap said they will “not be silent” ahead of a further legal challenge over a court’s decision to throw out the terrorism case against rapper Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh.

Mr Ó hAnnaidh was accused of displaying a flag in support of proscribed terrorist organisation Hezbollah at a gig in November 2024, until a technical error in the way he was charged led to the chief magistrate ruling he could not try the case.
