Seven individuals charged in connection with pro-Palestine graffiti found at Donald Trump’s Turnberry golf resort in Ayrshire last year are alleged by prosecutors to have links to terrorist activities, according to court documents. The graffiti incident involved not only the defacing of property but also damage to one of the golf courses at the site.
The charges against the group arose from events that took place in 2025, when the graffiti was discovered on buildings and other structures within the Turnberry complex. Authorities have suggested that the acts were politically motivated, with possible connections to extremist networks.
A preliminary hearing scheduled to take place in Glasgow on Monday has been postponed to October to allow for further preparation. Legal representatives for the accused have not publicly commented on the allegations of terrorist links.
The investigation remains ongoing, and prosecutors have indicated that more information or charges could follow as the case develops. The Turnberry resort, owned by former U.S. President Donald Trump, has previously faced security concerns amid heightened political tensions related to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Local law enforcement and counterterrorism units have been involved in the inquiry, reflecting the seriousness of the charges and the potential implications for public safety in the region. Details regarding the specific nature of the alleged terrorist connections have not been disclosed at this stage.
