Lawyers for Palestine protest organisers say restrictions on BBC demo 'unlawful'

Lawyers for pro-Palestine protest organizers in the UK are arguing that charges against them are unlawful. The organizers, Ben Jamal and Chris Nineham, were charged under the Public Order Act after a demonstration where some protesters marched towards the BBC despite police restrictions. The prosecution accuses the leaders of inciting the crowd to break the law, while the defense counters that the police restrictions themselves were illegal. This legal case stems from widespread protests in London calling for a ceasefire in Gaza and an end to UK support for Israel.
