Police delays in disclosing sensitive evidence files linked to the murder of former IRA man Kevin McGuigan have forced the postponement of his inquest.

Coroner Paddy McGurgan expressed frustration at the PSNI’s handling of the disclosure process but said he had little choice other than to vacate the scheduled hearing date in May.
