A murder inquiry into the 1972 Bloody Sunday killings in Londonderry is to begin in the new year.
Senior commanders from the Police Service of Northern Ireland have briefed relatives of the 14 people who died after British Paratroopers opened fire on civil rights demonstrators in the city.
Police had earlier signalled their intent to investigate Bloody Sunday after they and prosecutors reviewed the findings of the Saville public inquiry into the controversial shootings.
