A Derry man has been sentenced to three months in jail for contempt of the Bloody Sunday inquiry by refusing to attend and give evidence.
The application to punish the man for contempt of the tribunal was brought on behalf of the chairman, Lord Saville.
When sentencing was handed down, the 54-year-old man, known only as PIRA 9, stood up and shouted, claiming he was the only man to be punished for Bloody Sunday and adding it was a disgrace.
The Lord Chief Justice said there had been no attempt to challenge the potentially vital evidence that PIRA 9 was involved in the events of Bloody Sunday.
