UK protests in support of banned group Palestine Action
More than 70 people were arrested in the protests in the UK against the Palestinian Action Group, which prohibited a terrorist organization by the British government after a Royal Air Force Base and vandalism.
Metropolitan police said that 42 people were arrested in London in the afternoon on Saturday.
One of the arrests was to support a prohibited organization, which the police said that it involves chanting, wearing clothes, or exhibiting articles such as flags, signs or logos. Another person was arrested for a joint attack.
According to the Great Manchester Police, 16 more arrests were made in Manchester, while the South Wales police said that 13 people were organized in Cardiff.
In London, it was the second flat week of protesters gathered to support the pro -Palestinian activist group.
Illegal meant that the support of the organization was a criminal offense. Police arrested 29 people in a similar protest last weekend.
The two groups were gathered in Parliament Square of Nelson Mandela, both the Indian independence leader Mahatma Gandhi and Nelson Mandela, President of South Africa after the first apartheid.
Protesters were besieged by police officers and media members, “I oppose the genocide, I support the Palestinian action,” the signs were silently kept.
Some demonstrators can be seen while looking for police bags and lying on each other on the ground when buying signs.
Officers can be seen by carrying a series of protesters, which then stretch out, lift them off the ground and take them to the police vans waiting for the police.
As a group of terrorism law for 2000, the official appointment of the Palestinian action at the beginning of this month, its membership and actions to the group, means that it could be sentenced to up to 14 years of imprisonment.
81 organizations have already been banned within the scope of the UK Law, including Hamas and al-Qaeda militant groups.
The government took action after entering a Royal Air Force Base in Brize Norton in the UK, Oxfordshire on June 20, after the British government had damaged two flights by using red paint and sea bass to protest the military support of Israel in Gaza’s war in Gaza.
Police said that the incident caused the Stg7 million (A14.3 million) damage.
Four people between the ages of 22 and 35 were accused of conspiracy to establish criminal damage and conspiracy to enter a banned place for prejudiced purposes for the interests of England.
Four is scheduled to appear in the Central Court in London on 18 July.
