Quotes
On September 17, 2024, with the decision “Pindo Mulla v. Spain,” the Grand Chamber of the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) awarded to the Jehovah’s Witnesses another resounding legal victory, this time about the often-discussed issue of blood transfusions. It was a rare substantially unanimous judgement of all the Grand Chamber’s [seventeen (17)] judges ([eight] expressed a partially dissenting opinion not on the substance of the matter but only on the issue of non-pecuniary damage).
