Livtinenko: widow goes to European Court of Human Rights

I’m just watching Louise Christian in a telly press conference explaining the basis of her client Marina Livinenko’s complaint against Russia to the European Court of Human Rights. Russia is a signatory of course; and the complaint is that Russia has http://www.raybani.com/ breached the article 2 right to life, either by involvement in the actual killing or at least by failing properly to investigate the murder. She’ll also be claiming I think that her treatment has been inhuman, contrary to article 3.

Interesting, this: Christian was saying she’s not given up on the possibility that Andrei Lugovoi might still be extradited – as I’ve explained before, I really can’t understand this point of view, given the Russian constitution. But the Strasbourg claim seems to me entirely justified, and the most effective legal means of trying to hold Russia to account for Ray Ban outlet what happened. Ms. Christian also mentioned the possibility of an inquest in England at some point in the future.

Here’s a link to the Litvinenko Justice Foundation which Christian founded together with Marina, Boris Berezovsky and Alex Goldfarb.
