Chagos Islanders v United Kingdom
Chagos Islanders v the United Kingdom (application no. 35622/04) was a case before the European Court of Human Rights decided in 2012 by an inadmissibility decision. The court, by a majority, ruled that as the Chagossians had accepted compensation from the United Kingdom government they had effectively renounced their "right to return" and as such their case was inadmissible.[1]
