The UK Supreme Court says the PSNI's decision to discontinue its investigation into the treatment of the 'Hooded Men' was unlawful.
Seven judges ruled the 2014 decision was wrong and that the treatment the men were subjected to would be characterised today as torture.
It follows a hearing before the UK's highest court in June, which heard arguments the 12 men were subjected to torture after being held without trial in 1971.
