The Green Party is investigating member Lubna Speitan after her name appeared in court documents describing her as a “close friend” of a man who was later jailed for supporting al-Qaeda.

Speitan has also been identified as the party member behind a motion concerning Zionism. The available information does not set out the wording of the motion or explain the circumstances in which her relationship with the jailed man was referenced in court.

The material does not allege that Speitan supported al-Qaeda or committed an offence. It also does not provide details of the Green Party’s investigation, including when it began, what specific issues are being examined or whether Speitan has responded.

The latest known position is that the investigation is under way. No further outcome or decision by the party is provided.
