Application for Judicial Review of the CPS Victims' Right to Review Scheme R (Chaudhry) v DPP [2016] EWHC 2447 (Admin)

摘要

The background to this case is that two of the Claimant's children were abducted by her former husband in 1998 and taken to Pakistan. He was subsequently arrested in the Netherlands on a European Arrest Warrant in 2013 and convicted of two counts of child abduction, for which he was sentenced to seven years' imprisonment. Farkhanda Choudhry (FC) was the sister of the Claimant's ex-husband. The Claimant believed that FC had been involved in the abduction of her children. The Claimant attempted to use the CPS Victims' Right to Review scheme (VRR) to challenge the decision of the CPS that there was insufficient evidence to prosecute FC.
