One can understand both sides of the argument in this tragic case; male Sikhs believe their adherence to their religion requires them to carry the kirpan, a ceremonial knife symbolic of their faith but, in today's society, does it need to be large enough to inflict lethal wounds?

After all, I understand many Christians carry a Cross symbolic of their faith, but it is seldom large enough to be used to crucify a man...

"Policie odložila případ zřícení římsy v pražském centru, která loni zabila člověka. Pád zdiva podle kriminalistů zapříčinilo zejména použití nevhodných materiálů, a to už při stavbě budovy v roce 1899. Současný vlastník nemovitosti není za smrt muže trestně odpovědný. (ČTK)" -- "Podle katastru nemovitostí patřil objekt v době neštěstí firmě PVZP servis.

Policie odložila případ zřícení římsy v pražském centru, která usmrtila člověka

Vyšetřování tragického pádu římsy v centru Prahy, při kterém zemřel muž, bylo policií odloženo. Pád zdiva podle kriminalistů zapříčinilo zejména použití nevhodných materiálů, a to už při stavbě budovy v roce 1899. Současný vlastník nemovitosti není za smrt muže trestně odpovědný, protože udělal veškeré kroky k uvedení domu do bezvadného stavu. Dozorový státní zástupce se s tímto závěrem ztotožnil, sdělila Lucie Andělová z tiskového oddělení Městského státního zastupitelství v Praze.

Good morning, my friends 🌤️
Tomorrow is my birthday 🥺🎂🍩
I'm not looking for a celebration, just an ordinary day without fear, worry, or suffering.

My wish is very simple: to live with dignity and for my three children and me to have our basic needs met.

Your support or sharing of our voice is a truly humane act. 🤍🫂💔

🇫🇷 Français Le 12/09/25, la CEDH a jugé que l’inaction face à la pollution viole le droit à la vie. Décision éthique : l’environnement est un droit humain fondamental. L’UE agit aussi via son règlement anti-déforestation (EUDR). C’est la diplomatie du vivant : relier justice, survie et dignité.

🇬🇧 English On 12/09/25, the ECHR ruled that failing to act against pollution violates the right to life. Ethical ruling: the environment is a fundamental right. The EU follows with its anti-deforestation regulation. This is living diplomacy: linking justice, survival, and dignity.

The Bengal Files Movie Trailer Release 2025: A Glimpse into a Hard-Hitting Story

The Bengal Files trailer is out! Vivek Agnihotri’s final Files Trilogy film explores the 1946 Bengal riots. Release date: 5 Sept 2025.

The Review Now

Countries must prevent harm to the climate system and tackle fossil fuels to ensure the right to life.

"...The international court of justice (ICJ) said countries must prevent harm to the climate system and that failing to do so could result in their having to pay compensation and make other forms of restitution."

"The unanimous opinion covers a wide range of matters under international law. It says states are liable for all kinds of activities that harm the climate, but it takes explicit aim at fossil fuels. It says that a state’s failure to take appropriate action to protect the climate system from greenhouse gas emissions, including through the production and consumption of fossil fuels, the granting of fossil fuel exploration licences or the provision of fossil fuel subsidies, “may constitute an international wrongful act which is attributable to that state”.

"The court said a clean, healthy and sustainable environment was a precondition for exercising many human rights, such as the right to life, the right to health and the right to an adequate standard of living, including access to water, food and housing."
