60 more people to be prosecuted for 'showing support' for Palestine Action
The Metropolitan Police said it has been working closely with Counter Terrorism Policing, the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS), and the Attorney General's Office "to process the case files, with more prosecutions expected in the coming weeks."
Met Police said: "We have put arrangements in place that will enable us to investigate and prosecute significant numbers each week if necessary.
"Palestine Action was proscribed in July after the group claimed responsibility for damage to jets at RAF Brize Norton and was also linked to allegations of a serious assault on staff and police officers at a business premises in South Gloucestershire.
"Proscription of Palestine Action made membership or support of it a criminal offence."
Last week, the Met confirmed the first three charges in England and Wales under Section 13 of the Terrorism Act, linked to Palestine Action, following the arrests of three individuals at a protest in Parliament Square on July 5.
