Banksy Mural at London Court Reported as Criminal Damage, Set for Removal
A new mural by Banksy appeared on the Royal Courts of Justice in London, depicting a judge striking an unarmed protester holding a blood-spattered placard. The artwork, widely interpreted as a comment on the UK government's ban of the activist group Palestine Action, was quickly covered by black plastic and metal barriers and is set to be removed due to the building's Grade II-listed status, which legally protects its original character. The Metropolitan Police have treated the mural as criminal damage and are conducting inquiries. Banksy confirmed the mural's authenticity via Instagram. The court authorities and security officials are guarding the site, and the removal reflects obligations to preserve the historic Victorian gothic revival building. The mural has sparked discussions about civil liberties and judicial authority amid ongoing protests and legal challenges related to Palestine Action.
