Liselotte Sabroe/Ritzau... Acquire Licensing Rights Read moreCOPENHAGEN, Oct 2 (Reuters) - A group of women in Greenland are seeking compensation from Denmark over an involuntary birth control campaign launched in the 1960s, their lawyer said on Monday. "What do we need it for when we clearly know that there have been violations of the law and human rights," Naja Lyberth, one of the women seeking compensation, told Reuters. The women are seeking 300,000 Danish crowns ($42,380) each, the women's lawyer Mads Pramming told Reuters. Greenland was a Danish colony until 1953 but is now a semi-sovereign territory of Denmark, with a population of just 57,000. Last year, Denmark publicly apologised to the victims of a 1950s experiment in which children from Greenland were taken to Denmark.
