Unnamed man in his mid-30s attends voluntary interview after police review legal advice from CPS
A man in his mid-30s has been interviewed under caution in relation to comments made on stage during a Bob Vylan performance at Glastonbury festival, police have said.
Pascal Robinson-Foster, who goes by the name Bobby Vylan and is one half of the rap-punk duo, led chants of “Death, death to the IDF”, referring to the Israel Defense Forces, during their show on the West Holts stage at the festival in June.
In response to the controversy, Robinson-Foster posted a statement on Instagram arguing that his actions would teach younger people to “speak up for the change they want”.
Avon and Somerset police said shortly after the performance that they would investigate the comments as well as remarks made later on the same stage by the Irish rap trio Kneecap. In July, the force said Kneecap would face no further action.
