(4 Nov 09 - RV) A Statement from the Holy See Press office has come out against a ruling by the
European court of human rights that said the display of crucifixes in Italian public schools violates religious and educational freedoms. The statement came as the court in Strasbourg ordered Italy to pay a 5,000 euro fine to a mother who wanted crucifixes removed from her children's classrooms. The Italian government said it would appeal the ruling. Lydia O’Kane reports..
