A loyalist mural dedicated to a man serving a prison sentence for an offence linked to the massacre of five Catholics in a betting shop on Belfast's Ormeau Road five years ago has been condemned by SDLP and Alliance councillors.

The UFF mural in Dundonald is dedicated to loyalist prisoner, Mark Rice, who was jailed for 20 years for storing a rifle used in the attack on Sean Graham's bookmakers in 1992. SDLP councillor, Ms Rosaleen Hughes, said the mural was "highly offensive" to the families of the victims and the Lower Ormeau community.
