BBC News - Amnesty calls for halt on evictions from Dale Farm

Amnesty International has called on Basildon Council to halt the eviction of travellers living illegally at Dale Farm in Essex.

The district council says the travellers are occupying pitches on the site without planning permission but a spokesman for the human rights charity, Kartik Raj, says the eviction could be against the law.
