BBC News - German child killer Magnus Gaefgen awarded damages
A German court has awarded more than 3,000 euros ($4,265) in damages to a child murderer.
Police threatened Magnus Gaefgen with "unimaginable pain" if he did not reveal his victim's whereabouts.
The court in the state of Hesse decided Gaefgen's "human dignity" was violated during questioning on the disappearance of a banker's 11-year-old son.
