Christian preacher Stephen Green has been found guilty of breaching a Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO) in Ealing, London.
The 72-year-old preacher from South Wales said he would appeal the decision which found him in breach of section 67 of the Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014.
He was found guilty of holding a sign with a verse from the Bible on it outside of an abortion clinic, in a so-called ‘buffer zone’, in February 2023.
The PSPO prohibits any ‘act of disapproval’ of abortion within the ‘buffer zone’, which includes praying and reading from the Bible.
The sign Green held said, ‘Psalm 139:13 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb.’
