Executed two teenagers: Double murderer awarded £7,500 as taxpayers foot six-figure legal bill
A UK High Court ruling has awarded a convicted double murderer £7,500 in damages and £234,000 in legal costs after judges found his prison segregation breached the European Convention on Human Rights. The decision has sparked political backlash in Britain, reopening debate over extremist prisoners, taxpayer-funded payouts and whether human rights law is undermining prison security and public confidence.
