British Supreme Court to rule on PSNI's handling of union flag protests

The UK's highest court gives a ruling today in the latest round of a legal battle over how police in the North handled the union flag protests.

In April 2014, a High Court judge ruled in favour of a resident of the nationalist Short Strand area of east Belfast, who claimed the police's failure to stop unnotified loyalist marches past his home between December 2012 and February 2013 breached his right to privacy and family life.
