A man has told the Omagh Bombing Inquiry how he found his wife lying face down in rubble in the aftermath of the massacre.

Kevin Skelton told the hearing that he could never forget the smell of burning flesh and the cries of victims after a Real IRA bomb devastated the centre of the Co Tyrone town in 1998.
