Two former police officers and a force solicitor are due to go on trial accused of perverting the course of justice following the Hillsborough disaster.

Retired South Yorkshire Police chief superintendent Donald Denton, 83, will stand trial on Monday along with Alan Foster, 74, a retired detective chief inspector, and Peter Metcalf, 71, a former solicitor for the force.

The three men are all charged with two counts of doing acts tending and intended to pervert the course of justice.

The charges relate to the amendment of police officers’ statements following the disaster on April 15 1989.
