Which of the following is NOT the crime committed by the men?
The court’ s ruling says Britain would be in violation of the European Convention on Human Rights if it sent the two men back to Somalia.
The men have been convicted of burglary, drug dealing and threatening to kill people. British authorities sought to deport them. But the Strasbourg-based court said while their actions were "undesirable," they would be at risk of mistreatment in Somalia and therefore they cannot be forced to go there. It ordered the British government to pay the men’s legal fees, totaling more than $ 30,000.
The court analyzed each man’s personal and family situation before making its decision, suggesting it might approve the forced return of some people if they had the means to keep themselves safe. British media say the ruling could affect more than 200 other Somali convicts held in the country.
The director of the European Institute at University College London, Professor Richard Bellamy, says when there is a risk of mistreatment, the cost to the British government of holding the men and the danger they might pose if they are released from prison someday are not relevant.
Bellamy says under the European Convention on Human Rights, a person’s protection from torture is absolute. Bellamy says the Convention is designed, in part, to provide incentive to European countries to take action to help improve the human rights situation in other parts of the world so that foreign criminals can be sent home.
选项
A、To improve human rights around the world.
B、To threaten foreign criminals in European countries.
C、To legally hold the foreign criminals of other counties.
D、To make the British government not to violate the Convention.
