No Conviction NO DNA

The European Court of Human Rights has today given the people of England and Wales the best evidence ever that this government was on course to have a DNA and fingerprint database of every legal citizen in the UK, every illegal immigrant would get off lightly, for their own ends. The judgement means that if you are arrested and not convicted of any crime, your DNA and fingerprints, which are taken when you are cautioned and arrested on suspicion of having done a crime, must be immediately destroyed.

The case was brought by two men, after being arrested and their DNA was taken but not convicted, to the European Court of Human Rights after a decision by the UK High Court was thrown out in 2001.

Even after this judgement by 17 top Eurpean judges gave this verdict he Home Secretary Jacqui Smith said "The existing law will remain in place while we carefully consider the judgement." Which smacks of business as usual in this Communistic Labour Govenment and two fingers to the European Courts.
