Omagh families face accused by video-link

The North's court service is to operate a video link between Belfast and Omagh allowing victims' families to follow a criminal trial beginning next Monday, it was revealed this afternoon.

Sean Hoey, from south Armagh, faces 29 murder charges in connection with the bombing.

The video link will operate between Laganside Courts in Belfast and Omagh College and will run for the duration of the trial.

The facility was set-up after talks with the victims' families.
