Former British soldier still in custody as part of Bloody Sunday investigation

A former British soldier remains in custody in the North this morning as part of the investigation into the Bloody Sunday shootings.

The 66 year-old man was detained in County Antrim yesterday and taken to Belfast for questioning.

The arrest is part of a legacy inquiry into the deaths of thirteen civilians who were killed by the British Parachute Regiment during a civil rights march in Derry's Bogside in January 1972 - a fourteenth man later died of his injuries.

Kate Nash's 19-year-old brother, William, was among those who lost their lives.

“When the policeman first called I was absolutely staggered to be honest with you, desperately shocked, if I could describe it as kind of uncomfortably happy.”
