Case of D. v. The United Kingdom – European Court of Human Rights
The court held that the removal of a patient dying of AIDS to his country of origin, where he had no access to adequate medical treatment, accommodation, family, financial, or moral support, constituted a violation of article 3 on the prohibition of torture or inhuman or degrading treatment. The Convention explicitly affirms that foreign nationals should enjoy the same rights as citizens, particularly the right of due process, political freedoms, and equal legal protection.
