Three members of a Loyalist marching band will not be prosecuted over alleged “provocative conduct” after wearing Parachute Regiment emblems during a parade in Derry.

A former member of the regiment, known as Soldier F, is being prosecuted for allegedly murdering two civilians during the fatal shooting of 13 civil rights protesters in Derry on January 30, 1972.
