A former British soldier is set to be charged with the murder of a man and the attempted murder of six others during a 1972 shooting in Belfast, amid the Troubles over 50 years ago. The charges come ahead of a proposed amnesty on Troubles-related prosecutions. Northern Ireland's Public Prosecution Service (PPS) has confirmed the prosecution. This development marks a significant decision by the PPS as the region grapples with its historical legacy of conflict.
