An investigation by Avon and Somerset Police into chants made during a Bob Vylan performance at Glastonbury has concluded no further action will be taken.

"We have concluded, after reviewing all the evidence, that it does not meet the criminal threshold outlined by the CPS for any person to be prosecuted," the force said in a statement.

"No further action will be taken on the basis there is insufficient evidential for there to be a realistic prospect of conviction."

The investigation related to chants of "death, death to the IDF [Israel Defence Forces]" and other comments made during the band's performance on the West Holts Stage, which was also broadcast via a live stream on the BBC iPlayer.
