Two due in court in connection with Massereene Barracks deaths

Two men will go on trial in the North today, charged with the murder of two British soldiers two years ago.

Twenty-one-year-old Patrick Azimkar from London and 23-year-old Mark Quinsey from Birmingham were ambushed outside Massereene Barracks in Antrim on March 7, 2009.

They were collecting pizzas from the front gate when they were gunned down, while four other people were also injured.

Colin Duffy, 43, from Forest Glebe in Lurgan County Armagh, and 45-year-old Brian Shivers from Sperrin Mews, Magherafelt in Derry both deny charges of murder and attempted murder.
