The artwork – created by the Lurgan street artist Jonny McKerr – features portraits of the 14 victims gunned down by members of the British Parachute Regiment on January 30, 1972 while they were participating in an anti-internment demonstration.
The picture of Gerald Donaghey, aged 17, when he was killed takes centre stage above the legend ‘Innocent’ in large lettering.
This is in pointed rejection of Saville’s most controversial finding that four nail bombs found in Gerald’s pockets were ‘probably on him when he was shot’.
