The frontman, whose real name is Pascal Robinson-Foster, led chants of “death, death to the IDF (Israel Defence Forces)” during their BBC livestreamed performance at the Worthy Farm festival in June, which saw an investigation launched by Avon and Somerset Police.

Police said a man in his 30s, understood to be Robinson-Foster, had voluntarily attended an interview on Monday, after the force received advice from the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS).
