Bloody Sunday report revives N.Ireland's dark past


LONDON/LONDONDERRY (Reuters) - Prime Minister David Cameron will unveil a report on Tuesday into the 1972 Bloody Sunday killings of 13 protesters in Northern Ireland by British troops, stirring hopes of justice and fears of renewed tensions.

The 5,000-page report was 12 years in the making and the costliest in British legal history at close to 200 million pounds ($293 million). Chaired by Lord Saville, a British judge, the inquiry took evidence from 2,500 people from 1998 to 2004.
