crime & law terrorism

Seven people have been charged with vandalizing Donald Trump’s Turnberry golf resort on the west coast of Scotland. During the incident on March 8 of last year, the five-star resort's clubhouse was sprayed with graffiti and the golf course was dug up and painted with the words "Gaza is not 4 sale."

British prosecutors allege that the protesters, identified as members of Palestine Action, committed these acts of malicious damage with a terrorist connection.

Due to this alleged connection, the seven accused individuals could face longer sentences if they are found guilty.
