Women charged with terror offence over paraglider images at pro-Palestine march | UK News
Two women have been charged under the Terrorism Act in connection with displaying images of paragliders at a pro-Palestine rally in London.
Heba Alhayey, 29, and Pauline Ankunda, 26, are accused of ‘displaying an article, namely an image displaying a paraglider, to arouse reasonable suspicion that they are supporters of a proscribed organisation, namely Hamas’, the CPS said.
It comes after social media footage of a protest in Whitehall on October 14 showed a pair of women with the image taped to their tops, while a third held a placard with it.
