Protesters' joyous as 'justice is done.'

Article Abstract:

Opponents of former Chilean dictator General Augusto Pinochet have warmly welcomed the ruling by the law lords that he is not immune from prosecution on the basis of being a former head of state. However, supporters of Pinochet have also welcomed the ruling, which states that he is not answerable for charges of human rights abuses before 1988. Amnesty International has indicated that the ruling is a milestone for international human rights law.

Despite the misery, they still want to go home

Article Abstract:

Ethnic Albanians from Kosovo, Yugoslavia, who have sought asylum in the UK welcome the fact that they now feel safe. They report that they have been well treated in the UK. However, they still wish to return to Kosovo as soon as it is safe to do so. It is estimated that there are 10,000 Kosovan Albanian refugees already in the UK. Asylum status has been granted to 89% of those claiming to be refugees fleeing from persecution.
