Hundreds of people have attended the funeral of murdered greengrocer Harry Holland in west Belfast.

The 65-year-old's cortege stopped briefly outside his shop on the Glen Road.

Mr Holland died in hospital after being stabbed in the head near his home at Norfolk Drive last Tuesday.

Requiem Mass took place at St Matthias' Church, also on the Glen Road. Mr Holland was buried in the City Cemetery.

Father Tom Toner told mourners that Mr Holland's stabbing caused widespread revulsion, anger and disgust. He also called for more police on the streets.

A 16-year-old boy has appeared in court charged with the murder.

He is also accused of having a knife and making threats to kill.

Two other teenagers - a 17-year-old boy and a 15-year-old girl - have been in court in connection with the killing.
