The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) issued a Chamber judgment in favor of Jehovah’s Witnesses in the city of Kryvyi Rih, Ukraine, on September 3, 2019. The Court found the city council of Kryvyi Rih guilty of purposely withholding the approval needed for the brothers to build a Kingdom Hall.

 

According to the Chamber judgment, the city council must pay 7,000 euros (approx. $7,768 U.S.) in damages and legal costs to the two congregations that own the property for violating international law—Article 9 (protects freedom of thought, conscience, and religion) and Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 (guarantees the right to property) of the European Convention on Human Rights.
