Kneecap Release 'No Comment' With Sub Focus Responding to Mo Chara Terrorism Charge

The track answers a case tossed on timing grounds that prosecutors are now appealing.

Overview

  • The Belfast trio issued the two‑minute drum and bass single on Tuesday, framing it as a response to what they call a police witch‑hunt against Mo Chara.
  • Cover art uses Banksy’s Royal Courts of Justice mural and is reported to be used with permission.
  • A London judge threw out the charge in September after ruling the CPS missed the six‑month statutory deadline to file.
  • The Crown Prosecution Service has said it will appeal the dismissal, keeping the legal question open.
  • The case stems from an alleged display of a Hezbollah‑linked flag at a November 2024 London show, and the band is performing the song on a sold‑out UK and Ireland tour.
