Murdered backpacker's family hopeful over inquest

A solicitor for the family of murdered backpacker Inga Maria Hauser has said they hope it will ultimately help secure prosecutions.

The 18-year-old German was murdered after arriving in Northern Ireland on a ferry from Scotland in 1988.

Her body was found in Ballypatrick forest outside Ballycastle. No-one has ever been charged over her killing.
