A member of West Belfast rap group Kneecap is due back in court in London today over a terror charge.

27 year old Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh , who goes by ‘Mo Chara’ on stage, is accused of displaying a flag in support of Hezbollah at a gig in London in November last year.

With supporters of the band expected to gather at Westminster Magistrates’ Court this morning, police have imposed conditions to “prevent serious disruption”.

A solidarity demonstration will also take place in Dublin.

In a statement posted on social media in May Kneecap said they deny the charge against Mo Chara.
