Описание:

Three women have been found guilty of terrorism offences despite "no evidence" of support for Hamas.

Heba Alhayek, 29, and Pauline Ankunda, 26, attached images to their backs seven days after Hamas militants used paragliders to enter Israel in October, the court heard.

Noimutu Olayinka Taiwo, 27, stuck one to a placard's handle at a central London pro-Palestinian march.

They denied charges under the Terrorism Act.
The three were charged with carrying or displaying an article to arouse reasonable suspicion that they were supporters of a banned organisation.

Convicting them at Westminster Magistrates' Court, Deputy Senior District Judge Tan Ikram said: "Seven days earlier, Hamas went into Israel with what was described by the media as paragliders.

"A reasonable person would have seen and read that.

"I do not find a reasonable person would interpret the image merely as a symbol of freedom."
