WATCH: Man in 'Free Palestine' shirt interrupts World Cup Final

A person clad in a 'Stop bombing Palestine' shirt invaded the playing area at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad during the World Cup final between India and Australia on Sunday. 

The individual, attired in red shorts, sported a white shirt bearing the message 'Stop bombing Palestine' on the front and 'Free Palestine' on the back.

The man attempted to embrace Virat Kohli, but his actions led to a temporary halt in the game as security personnel swiftly apprehended him. The security breach prompted the authorities to take the intruder into custody.

Following the removal of the pitch invader, the necessary security measures were reinforced, allowing the resumption of the World Cup final.

 

 

The aforementioned protestor was later questioned by media, while he was being escorted by the authorities. He stated that he hails from Australia and approached Virat Kohli to meet him and also express his opposition towards the ongoing conflict in Palestine.
