Gerry Conlon, who was wrongly convicted of the 1974 IRA Guildford pub bombing, has died aged 60. The case of the Guildford Four was one of the most infamous miscarriages of justice the UK has ever seen. Mr Conlon served 15 years of a life sentence for the attack which killed five people and injured 65, before his conviction was overturned in 1989. SDLP MP Mark Durkan and Observer's Belfast correspondent Henry McDonald pay tribute
