No prosecutions for eight held in connection with murder of Sunday World journalist

Eight people investigated in connection with the murder of a journalist in the North more than a decade ago will not be prosecuted because of concerns about a key witness's evidence, the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) said today.

Sunday World reporter Martin O'Hagan, 51, was shot dead by loyalists in Lurgan, Co Armagh, in September 2001.
