Police have charged a 46-year-old man with the murder of a senior loyalist in south Belfast. A 46-year-old man has appeared in court charged with murdering senior UDA figure Colin 'Bap' Lindsay.
Colin 'Bap' Lindsay, 47, a well-known member of the Ulster Defence Association (UDA), was killed in an attack on Wednesday. Albert Armstrong, from Mahee Close on the Belvoir estate in Belfast, is also accused of attempting to murder Stanley Wightman.
Another man is in a critical condition after the incident at Kirkistown Walk in the Belvoir housing estate. Police believe a sword was used. Mr Lindsay, 47, a well-known member of the Ulster Defence Association (UDA), was killed in an attack on Wednesday.
Albert Armstrong, 46, has been charged with murder. Mr Armstrong was remanded in custody and will reappear on 7 August.
He has also been charged with attempted murder and is due to appear at Newtownards Magistrates Court later. Mr Wightman, 52, is still in a critical condition in hospital after suffering severe neck and arm injuries.
It is not believed there was any paramilitary link to Mr Lindsay's killing. The attack took place at Kirkistown Walk in the south Belfast estate.
Mr Armstrong was arrested after police received a call from a concerned member of the public at 19:59 BST. Both men were found in the living room of Mr Lindsay's bungalow.
Another man, Stanley Wightman, was taken to the Royal Victoria Hospital where he underwent surgery. Mr Lindsay, a father of two, was pronounced dead at the scene.
The 52-year-old has "significant injuries" to his neck and arm, police have said.
On Thursday, in what police described as an "unusual step", they named the three men they believe were involved in the incident as part of their appeal for information.
