Romany women's group calls for compensation over forced sterilisations
A Romany women's working group wants a fund established to compensate
women sterilised without their consent. The group, part of the
government's council for Romany affairs, is also calling for an
apology, the council's head Czeslaw Walek said on Tuesday. A document
prepared by the group says financial compensation should also go to
women in cases which exceed the statue of limitations. The Ombudsman
had previously called for damages to be paid in cases dating back as
far as 1971.
