European Court of Human Rights rules against the parents of missing British toddler Madeleine McCann, saying that Portugal had given them a fair hearing in their libel battle against a former Portuguese policeman.
PARIS — The European Court of Human Rights ruled on Tuesday against the parents of missing British toddler Madeleine McCann, saying that Portugal had given them a fair hearing in their libel battle against a former Portuguese policeman.
The parents then appealed to the European court, arguing that their right to a fair trial, right to private family life and freedom of expression had not been upheld by Portugal. Kate and Gerry McCann said they were “disappointed” with the decision in a statement via lawyer, Ricardo Correia Afonso, but added that “much has changed” since they started the proceedings. The lawyer said they would not appeal.
