Couple's stolen caravan cannot be returned as could breach traveller family's 'human rights' - Telegraph
Couple's stolen caravan cannot be returned as could breach traveller family's 'human rights' - Telegraph
Kathleen McLelland and Michael Curry were told by officers that they have “no lawful powers” to take their caravan back from a traveller couple and their two children.
The couple, from Tongham, Surrey, bought the 26ft Bailey Louisiana caravan with their retirement savings before spending £10,000 on upgrades. The £20,000 mobile home was stolen 18 months ago.
They will now have to launch civil proceedings against the traveller family if they want their caravan back, but fear they will not be able to afford legal fees.
Ms McLelland, 68, said: “We’re devastated – it was all we had.
"They've told us social services would have to be involved to get the family accommodation before they could seize it, otherwise they said it could breach their human rights.”

Obama task force revives SOPA provision outlawing online streaming — RT USA
Obama task force revives SOPA provision outlawing online streaming — RT USA
Sharing a song on YouTube could soon become a felony: the United State Department of Commerce is asking Congress to increase the penalties for streaming copyrighted work, reviving a provision from the failed Stop Online Piracy Act.
Opposition from the likes of Google, Wikipedia and the American Civil Liberties Union helped stop SOPA from passing in early 2012, but part of that bill could soon be back from the dead. According to a recent Commerce Department report, the office’s Internet Policy Task Force is asking Congress to reconsider a section of SOPA that could heavily penalize people for uploading select content to streaming services.
The task force’s latest report, Copyright Policy, Creativity and Innovation in the Digital Economy, pressures Congress to consider felony convictions for people caught streaming copyrighted songs, music and movies, and some say such legislation would outlaw the practice of uploading homemade cover tunes to the World Wide Web.
