Men win appeal against Omagh ruling

FAMILIES of Omagh bomb victims have pledged to stick with their marathon legal battle after two men successfully appealed a court ruling that had found them responsible for the 1998 outrage.

Colm Murphy is set for a civil retrial and Seamus Daly could face similar legal proceedings after their appeals were allowed by Belfast High Court.

Challenges lodged by convicted Real IRA leader Michael McKevitt and fellow senior republican Liam Campbell over their liability for the attack were dismissed by a panel of three judges.
