Nelson inquiry begins work on final report

The judges overseeing the Rosemary Nelson inquiry have retired to begin work on their final report.

The three-judge panel has heard 130 days of evidence as part of its investigation into allegations that the police colluded with the loyalists who murdered the 40-year-old lawyer in March 1999.

Ms Nelson, a mother of three children, was killed by a bomb planted underneath her car outside her home in Lurgan.

She had testified to a US congressional committee and to the UN about threats to her life from police officers because of her role in three high-profile cases.
