The PSNI have charged a 49-year-old man in connection with a bomb found near a courthouse in Derry.

The viable device was found hidden in a parked car outside Bishop Street courthouse in March last year.

A number of controlled explosions had to be carried out to make the device safe.

The man is expected to appear before Derry Magistrates Court tomorrow.
