Murder bid accused refused bail
A former friend of Mark Haddock who is accused of trying to murder the north Belfast loyalist has been refused bail at the High Court.

Darren Moore, 36, from Mount Vernon Park, Belfast, is alleged to have aided the murder bid by stepping aside as an accomplice opened fire from a car.

Mr Haddock was shot six times in the attack.

Lord Justice Campbell said he was not prepared to grant bail "because of Moore's paramilitary connections".
