NI DPP 'not involved in Bloody Sunday probe'

The Northern Ireland Director of Public Prosecutions was not involved in the police decision to launch a murder investigation into the Bloody Sunday killings, his office said today.

Barra McGrory QC represented Martin McGuinness in the marathon Saville Inquiry into the shootings in Derry in January 1972 when the Sinn Féin MP was an IRA leader in the city.
