The NI High Court (Humphreys J) has just granted a mandatory order compelling a public inquiry in a Troubles-related atrocity. From a public law perspective, this is extremely rare. But to all the detractors of proper investigations into our dark past, do take a moment to read this intro:
![Judgment in Brown [2024] NIKB 109 (https://www.judiciaryni.uk/judicial-decisions/2024-nikb-109)
Intro:
"On 12 May 1997, Sean Brown, the chairman of Bellaghy Wolfe Tones GAA Club, was locking the gates to the training ground when he ambushed by loyalist paramilitaries. He was abducted, beaten, and shot six times in the head. His body was found next to his burning car the following morning in Randalstown."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:bd4hjk56meownjkypm2xhk5b/bafkreiavnupp5i4irrnv75sx7xnqaqrghcm4r3whldsxxkr7plyd4v4qru@jpeg)

Sad indictment on our society
Any time visiting clients in Hydebank, it always came across as very well run facility. In comparison to Maghaberry and Magilligan, in which a mental health/addiction crisis is imploding within their wall’s. Urgent action needs to implemented in the Norths prison system.
The Hydebank Wood prison facility in Belfast has been given top ratings in independent inspections – a decade after it was described as failing.
