The Bloody Sunday Inquiry, also known as the Saville Inquiry or the Saville Report after its chairman, Lord Saville of Newdigate, was established in 1998 by British Prime Minister Tony Blair after campaigns for a second inquiry by families of those killed and injured in Derry on Bloody Sunday during the peak of The Troubles. It was published on 15 June 2010. The inquiry was set up to establish a definitive version of the events of Sunday 30 January 1972, superseding the tribunal set up under Lord Widgery that had reported on 19 April 1972, 11 weeks after the events, and to resolve the accusations of a whitewash that had surrounded it.

  • The Bloody Sunday Inquiry, also known as the Saville Inquiry or the Saville Report after its chairman, Lord Saville of Newdigate, was established in 1998 by British Prime Minister Tony Blair after campaigns for a second inquiry by families of those killed and injured in Derry on Bloody Sunday during the peak of The Troubles. It was published on 15 June 2010. The inquiry was set up to establish a definitive version of the events of Sunday 30 January 1972, superseding the tribunal set up under Lord Widgery that had reported on 19 April 1972, 11 weeks after the events, and to resolve the accusations of a whitewash that had surrounded it. The inquiry took the form of a tribunal established under the Tribunals of Inquiry (Evidence) Act 1921, and consisted of Lord Saville, William L. Hoyt, the former Chief Justice of New Brunswick and John L. Toohey, a former Justice of the High Court of Australia. The judges finished hearing evidence on 23 November 2004, and reconvened once again on 16 December to listen to testimony from another witness, known as Witness X, who had been unavailable earlier. The report was published on 15 June 2010. The British prime minister David Cameron addressed the House of Commons that afternoon where he acknowledged, among other things, that the paratroopers had fired the first shot, had fired on fleeing unarmed civilians, and shot and killed one man who was already wounded. He then apologised on behalf of the British Government. (en)
  • Savillerapporten är en rapport beställd av brittiska regeringen om vad som hände under Den blodiga söndagen, den händelse då brittiska trupper öppnade eld mot katolska demonstranter i Nordirland som ledde till ett stort antal döda. År 1998 beslutade Storbritanniens premiärminister Tony Blair att en ny undersökning av denna händelse skulle tillsättas, för att om möjligt kunna ta död på de konspirationsteorier som uppstått på grund av brister i den första utredningen. Undersökningskommissionens arbete skulle presenteras i mars 2010, men publiceringen sköts upp till efter parlamentsvalet 2010. Den publicerades i mitten av juni 2010. Kommissionen bestod av en panel av tre domare ledda av Lord Saville of Newdigate och rapporten kom därmed att kallas Savillerapporten. Rapporten är den dyraste offentliga rapport som har tagits fram i Storbritannien, den har kostat knappt 200 miljoner pund man intervjuad 2.500 personer som var med(polis, militär, sjukvårdspersonal, demonstranter, åskådare och journalister). I slutrapporten slås det fast att skulden till massakern faller på de brittiska militärerna och att demonstranterna var utan skuld. Till följd av Savillerapporten uttalade sig premiärminister David Cameron i det brittiska parlamentet och sade att den brittiska arméns handlande på blodiga söndagen var oförsvarligt. Han sade att han var mycket ledsen över händelsen. (sv)
