Massive Attack members barred from Singapore after displaying Palestinian flag

Two members of British band Massive Attack were barred from re-entering Singapore after displaying the Palestinian flag during a concert. Singapore police stated the band is under investigation for 'supporting a political cause and unfurling of a foreign flag' and will no longer be allowed to perform in the country. Singapore prohibits public display of foreign national emblems without a permit, with the Palestinian flag being particularly sensitive due to the Gaza war and the nation's Muslim population.
