A sister of the murdered Belfast man, Robert McCartney, has said more witnesses have come forward.

Paula McCartney said the family was confident something would happen sooner rather than later.

Mr McCartney was stabbed in the throat and stomach on 30 January outside a Belfast city bar following a row with senior IRA men.

The identities of the chief suspects are known but nobody has been charged.
