Tag des Grundgesetzes: Die Würde des Menschen muss unantastbar bleiben (20.05.05)

Mit einem "Aufruf zur Verteidigung des Folterverbots" beziehen deutsche Verfassungsrechtler Position gegen Tendenzen, das absolute Folterverbot und die Unantastbarkeit der Menschenwürde zu relativieren. Anlass ist der "Tag des Grundgesetzes" am 23. Mai. Die Stellungnahme geht auf eine Initiative von amnesty international (ai) Deutschland zurück. Die Verfassungsrechtler widersprechen darin den "Stimmen, die Folter in bestimmten Ausnahmesituationen zulassen wollen, um menschliches Leben zu retten."
