AIDS: The European Court of Human Rights ruled that a man approaching death from AIDS-related complications cannot be deported to St. Kitts. The man, identified as D, was convicted of possessing large quantities of cocaine, and after a six-year sentence was ordered deported from the U.K. He argued that his removal to St. Kitts would deprive him of access to medical care and would, in effect, be a death sentence. The Immigration Department argued that policy did not give persons with AIDS an automatic right to remain in the country. The court found that the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms protected the man's right to remain.^ieng
