amnesty international responds to the law lords ruling on control orders
Amnesty International warned that the Law Lords ruling may only lead to the government persisting with a watered-down Control Order regime that remains fundamentally unfair.
The organisation applauded the Lords' decision to rule against some of the worst features of Control Orders, such as 18-hour curfews and the witholding of key evidence from some defendants. But Amnesty expressed concern that the Control Order regime still stands and called for it to be abandoned altogether.
