Ex-soldier acquitted at Bloody Sunday shootings trial

What this episode covers

Today, the only military veteran ever prosecuted in relation to the 1972 shootings during a march in Northern Ireland has been acquitted of murder charges. Thirteen people were shot dead in Londonderry when members of the army’s Parachute Regiment opened fire on civil rights demonstrators. The BBC’s Ireland correspondent Chris Page takes us through today’s verdict. Also on the programme: Ukraine urges the EU to back a plan to release billions of euros in frozen Russian assets to help fund the country’s defence; NBA basketball stars and mafia members are among more than 30 people arrested in an illegal gambling crackdown; and activist Malala Yousafzai explains what led her to seeking therapy following her experiences with the Taliban.(Photo: Family members hold pictures of victims of the 1972 'Bloody Sunday', in Belfast, Northern Ireland.
