The funeral has taken place in Belfast for Joe Clarke – one of a group known as the Hooded Men, who were subjected to controversial interrogation techniques in the 1970s.

Mr Clarke died this week at the age of 71, just before it was announced publicly that the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) had apologised to the men.
