Army didn't consider shooting marchers - General
The British Army had not been considering killing people for taking part in illegal marches, a retired Major General told the Bloody Sunday Inquiry today.
In a secret paper written three days before Bloody Sunday on January 30, 1972 when paratroopers shot dead 13 unarmed civil rights marchers in Derry, Maj Gen Henry Dalzell-Payne examined ways to enforce a ban on marches.
