Prominent republican challenges anti-terror laws
Prominent republican Colin Duffy, currently held over the murder of a Northern Ireland prison officer, is at the centre of a challenge to the European Court of Human Rights which could force a change in the laws governing the length of time terror suspects can be held.
Duffy, 44, from Lurgan, Co Armagh, who has been cleared of murder charges on three separate previous occasions – was arrested last week in connection with the killing of David Black.
