On December 5, the European Court of Human Rights began hearings in the case of Giuliani v. Italy. In 2003, an Italian judge dismissed the prosecution of two policemen who allegedly caused the shooting death of Carlo Giuliani while protesting during the G-8 Summit in Genoa in 2001. The applicants, who are relatives of the deceased, claim that Italy’s dismissal of the case violated the European Convention of Human Rights. For more information see here.
