Massive Attack banned from Singapore over Palestinian flag
A video shows two Massive Attack members on stage unfurling a Palestinian flag to loud cheers from the audience, prompting the police probe.
British trip-hop band Massive Attack has been barred from performing in Singapore after an investigation found two members unfurled a Palestinian flag during a concert, police said.
Two band members who held the flag on stage during a concert on Wednesday were also banned from re-entering Singapore and issued with warnings, police said in a statement late on July 31, without naming the pair.
Singapore, known for its tough laws on public speech and assembly, bans the open display of all foreign flags, national emblems or banners without a permit.
