A man has appeared in court in Oban charged with a terrorism offence after a police investigation into “those involved in encouraging support for Palestine Action”.
Anthony Harvey appeared in private at Oban Sheriff Court on Wednesday.
The 59-year-old, whose general address was given as London, faced a charge under Section 12 (3) of the Terrorism Act, which concerns the offence of addressing a private meeting to encourage support for a proscribed organisation.
No plea was entered and the case was committed for further examination.
Police Scotland had earlier said they had executed a warrant in Oban “as part of an ongoing investigation into those involved in encouraging support for Palestine Action”.
