LONDON (Reuters) - Britain will be able to impose sanctions on people who commit gross human rights violations under a so-called Magnitsky amendment backed by members of parliament on Tuesday.
The amendment to a new Sanctions and Anti-Money Laundering Bill going through parliament passed without a vote as it was backed both by the ruling Conservatives and the main opposition Labour Party.
