Khalid Abdalla, known for his role as Dodi Fayed in Netflix's The Crown, has been summoned by the Metropolitan Police for a formal interview regarding his participation in a pro-Palestinian protest on January 18. The protest, organized by the Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC), began as a static rally on Whitehall but participants later marched towards Trafalgar Square, allegedly breaching conditions set
Abdalla, along with others including Holocaust survivor Stephen Kapos, received letters from the police. He expressed concern over what he perceives as an attack on the right to protest in the UK, emphasizing the importance of defending this right amidst rising censorship of pro-Palestinian voices.
The PSC condemned the police's actions, viewing them as attempts to suppress public expression of solidarity with Palestine. They argue that such measures aim to halt protests and harass those involved in the movement.
The investigation continues, with Abdalla stating that it remains uncertain whether this will lead to formal charges.
