UK Court Hears Ban Case
The UK Supreme Court will hold hearings on Wednesday and Thursday to consider a challenge by Huda Ammori, co-founder of Palestine Action, to the group’s ban. The challenge argues that the Home Office failed to follow its legal procedures. Ammori says the group carried out 385 actions over five years, all of them peaceful, and that only three were subject to a controversial assessment. Under British law, membership of the group or expressing support for it is punishable by up to 14 years in prison. The challenge comes as around 4,200 people have been arrested since the ban took effect. Ammori intends to take the case to the European Court of Human Rights if the challenge is rejected.
