Families welcome ruling over scope of Birmingham pub bombings inquest
Families of those killed in the Birmingham pub bombings have welcomed a legal ruling ordering a coroner in England to reconsider his decision to restrict the scope of inquests into the atrocity.
A judicial review heard by two British High Court judges quashed a previous decision by coroner Sir Peter Thornton to exclude the issue of the perpetrators of the 1974 bombings from the new hearings.
