Tribute event for Rosemary

AN event to commemorate the murder of solicitor Rosemary Nelson will be held in Belfast tonight.

The mother of three was 40 when a loyalist bomb exploded under her car on March 15, 1999.

The annual event will focus on homelessness this year, an issue the organiser Padraigin Drinan believes her old friend would have felt strongly about.

She said: “Every year we look at a different topic we believe Rosemary would have been interested in.”
