The jury at the new inquests into the Hillsborough disaster is to deliver its verdict on Tuesday on how 96 people died at an FA Cup semi-final on 15 April 1989.
The jury of six women and three men will give their decisions from 11am, on what is expected to be a highly charged day for relatives of the 96, many of whom will be at court for the conclusion of the longest jury proceedings in British legal history.

Courtroom passes were hurriedly organised for the families of the 96 who will make the pilgrimage.
At 11am, we will know what decisions have been reached by a majority of seven of nine jurors in the case. ‘Decisions’ because, although there is always a natural desire for a ‘guilty’ or ‘not guilty’ when questions of blame are considered, this inquest process is not binary. It is more complex than that.
