Australia -- A top international sporting body is set to be taken to trial, accused of violating the human rights of a blind Adelaide man.
Paralympics gold medallist Anthony Clarke will call on witnesses, including an Olympic judo coach, to prove he can compete with able-bodied martial artists.
He claims the Oceania Judo Union banned him from its 2005 world tournament and cost him a spot at next year's Beijing Olympics.
The New Zealand-based group has vowed to defend its position that Mr Clarke would need a sighted carer if he was to be involved in the competition.
