Gary Dunne, 22, from West Derby, was attacked with a machete near Torremolinos in March 2006.
His killer, Victor Posse Navas, was jailed for nine years by a judge in Malaga earlier this month. Mr Dunne's parents Steve and Lee Dunne want to get his body repatriated so they can hold a family funeral. But Spanish authorities have said the body needs cremating for hygiene reasons before it can be transported. Mr and Mrs Dunne have already handed petitions into Downing Street and have asked Arlene McCarthy, MEP for the north-west of England, for help. Now they are taking their case to the European Court of Human Rights. Mr Dunne, builder and father-of-one, was stabbed when he and a friend were attacked at Benalmadena on the Costa del Sol. He was taken to hospital but later died of his injuries. Navas, a 24-year-old drug addict, admitted slashing him without provocation but told the court he did not remember very much about the attack. After he was sentenced, Mrs Dunne said: "Justice isn't the sentence. Justice is having our Gary home."
