"Four years ago today, the Hillsborough Independent Panel (HIP) report was published and its revelations shocked the world.

Some of what the report revealed had been known in Merseyside since the tragedy on April 15, 1989, but for the first time families heard that many of the 96 victims could have been saved if there was earlier treatment and the scale of the cover up was exposed to the nation.

In the four years since the panel report was released, two investigations into the disaster were set up and new inquests found the 96 were unlawfully killed and the fans were not to blame.

We look at some of the most shocking revelations from the HIP report and what has happened since."
