this week, though, in a landmark ruling, the court of appeal overturned the decision of the court of protectionked mental capacity to make decisions about her medical treatment. i'm joined now by human rights lawyer and legal counsel to the christian legal centre , roger kishka. thank you, centre, roger kishka. thank you, rogen centre, roger kishka. thank you, roger, for making time for us. >> thank you. neil, it's a pleasure to be on with you. >> roger this. when this story was brought to my attention last yeanl was brought to my attention last year, i thought it couldn't be true. i thought that can't be right. that can't be happening to a person who is of age, has been declared medically sound by independent psychiatrists. she wants to keep on fighting, and she's been told that's no longer her decision to make. and yet. and yet that's what happened . and yet that's what happened. >> yeah. i mean, it blows the mind, really. this was this was a young lady who was successfully completing her a levels, she had the strength and the will to live. she had said all along that she wants to die trying

the experts and experts, and in fact iranian lawyers refer our case to the german federal court for the protection of the constitution in frankfurt, that is, a higher court. when the first court of ghazdar cannot do their job properly, i cannot comment on when and at what point this should happen, but i know that the main duty of the german constitutional protection court is to behave in accordance with the principles of the german constitution, that is , if the lower court or the trial court issues a political ruling or declares an opinion contrary to the constitutional order. my case, we should actually have a way to the court of protection of the german constitution and it theatrical freedoms that exist for both the minority and individual people in the dimension of inviolability of human dignity and honor, in my opinion, in fact, the authorities of the islamic republic can easily use this legal and judicial capacity at the level of germany, so the first step this is in all legal capacities. then , if the german judicial system did not have enough independence to stop these illegal procedures , wh

and to say or to suggest that all of these state court's procedural orders, protective orders are fundamentally flawed or eninherently overridable would be profoundly unselling for the state courts trying to protect victims of domestic violence. i think as well these principles equally demonstrate substaff c-2's validity. we think there is an inherent requirement that the court find the threat of physical force is likely to justify entering that judicial finding and that provides a basis to uphold 922-g-8 with respect to all of its applications. the other thing this is an easy case, it's not just congress but 48 states and territories share this view that armed domestic violence needs to be guarded against and that disarmament is a permissible legislative response and i think that further fortifies the congressional judgment. and the third reason why this should be an easy case, because it does guard against a profound harm. a woman who lives in a house with a domestic abuser is five times more likely to be murdered if he has access to a gun. and it's not just the harms in the home. it extends

court of judges cannot do their job. if this happened, i would like to make a comment, but i know that the german constitutional protection court's main duty is to act according to the principles of the german constitution, that is, if it is allowed. or state against the order of the constitution. in my opinion, our case should actually be a way to the court to protect the german constitution and that freedom. in my opinion, the officials of the islamic republic of iran are the ones who are acting on the inviolability of human dignity and honor. they can easily use this legal and judicial capacity in germany. so, the first step is to act in all possible legal capacities inside germany. whether or not we can directly refer to the german federal constitutional protection court or we should file a complaint so that the complaint actually reaches them , well, lawyers definitely comment on this. we also have centers in germany that we want from diplomacy of silence, let's take some distance and go towards taking countermeasures after examining and considering the internal laws that we have in our own country. in my opinion, ge
