3 months agoCPS to appeal decision to throw out terror case against Kneecap rapper
Chief magistrate Paul Goldspring, who sat at Woolwich Crown Court on 26 September, had said the charge brought against O hAnnaidh was unlawful and that he had no jurisdiction to try the case. His ruling agreed with O hAnnaidh's lawyers, who argued that the Attorney General had not given permission for the case to be brought against the defendant when police informed him he was to face a terror charge on 21 May.
