Pat Finucane
The family of Pat Finucane, murdered during The Troubles in Northern Ireland, win a declaration from the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom that the investigation into his killing was sufficiently ineffective to amount to a failure of the state's obligations under the European Convention on Human Rights. The Supreme Court stops short of mandating a public inquiry as requested by the family. Members of the security services are accepted to have colluded with Finucane's murderers, but the scale and nature of collusion is unclear.
