The case against Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh is thrown out following a technical error in the way the charge against him was brought.

Outside the court, Mr Ó hAnnaidh said: "This entire process was never about me.

"It was never about any threat to the public, it was never about terrorism – a word used by your government to discredit people you oppress.

"It was always about Gaza, about what happens if you dare to speak up.

“Your attempts to silence us have failed because we’re right and you’re wrong.”
