A criminal investigation into Kneecap’s performance at this year’s Glastonbury Festival has been dropped. Avon and Somerset Police announced yesterday that there was “insufficient evidence to provide a realistic prospect of conviction for any offence”.
During their Glastonbury set, Móglaí Bap called for fans to “start a riot” outside court when his fellow band member Mo Chara’s trial on terrorism charges begins. But a few minutes later, after realising that his comments could be construed as an incitement to violence, he explained that he wasn’t literally asking people to riot.
The investigation into another Glastonbury performance, by Bob Vylan, is continuing. Bobby Vylan, the group’s front man, led the crowd in a chant of “death, death to the IDF”, a reference to the Israel Defense Forces.
