The Crown Prosecution Service is challenging a recent court decision to dismiss terrorism charges against Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh, widely known by his stage name Mo Chara.

The charges were linked to an incident involving the alleged display of a Hezbollah flag during a concert in London in November 2024. Last month's dismissal was due to the case being filed beyond the statutory time limit of six months.

A spokesperson from the prosecution service stated their intent to appeal, insisting that the case raises a significant legal issue that necessitates clarification.
