It’s been a busy week for the Chinook Justice Campaign after issuing our 110 Vital Questions Press Release and delivering our petition of 50,000 signatures to 10 Downing Street.

The Chinook Justice Campaign's Nicola Rawcliffe and Darren Neilly are interviewed by Charlie Stayt and Naga Munchetty on BBC Breakfast.

Chinook families say only a judge-led public inquiry can reveal the truth about the 1994 crash. They have compiled 110 Vital Unanswered Questions none of which were answered at any of the six previous inquiries cited by the Ministry of Defence and the Prime Minister.

The Police Service of Northern Ireland, the Police Federation for Northern Ireland, the Northern Ireland Retired Police Officers Association, the Intelligence Corps Association, the Superintendents Association of Northern Ireland, and The Royal Gloucestershire, Berkshire and Wiltshire (RGBW) and Rifles Association have all joined the Chinook Justice Campaign.

The Chief Constable of the Police Service of Northern Ireland, Jon Boutcher, has given his strong backing to our campaign.
