Inquest date on shot film-maker

The Israeli army said James Miller had "taken great risks"

An inquest on a cameraman shot dead in a Palestinian refugee camp is to take place in London on 3 April, it has been announced.

James Miller was shot while filming in Gaza in 2003. An Israeli investigation in April 2005 cleared a soldier of misusing his firearm.

Mr Miller, 34, from Braunton, north Devon, was killed as he filmed a documentary in the Rafah refugee camp.

His relatives have expressed their anger at the Israeli judicial decision.

Mr Miller was struck in the neck, between his helmet and bullet-proof vest.

His colleagues said the team were carrying a white flag at the time and had made themselves known to troops in the area.

The Israeli army expressed regret over Mr Miller's death but said he had "taken great risks by being in a virtual war zone".

The British inquest will be the first time that all the evidence will have been disclosed in an independent court.
