UN rapporteur challenges LSE over action against pro-Palestine protesters

Seven students put under precautionary measures' after allegations relating to campus demonstration in July

The London School of Economics has been criticised by a UN rapporteur and accused of Islamophobia after raising an allegation that students behind a pro-Palestine demonstration in July had prompted fears of a repeat of the 7/7 terrorist attacks.

A total of seven students, four of them female, have been put under precautionary measures", restricting their access to the university's campus, over allegations relating to a noisy protest on 7 July in the atrium of the LSE student services centre.
