Amsterdam couple drop opposition to Holocaust memorial stone outside home after sparking outrage

A couple who launched a legal challenge to try and remove a Holocaust memorial plaque removed from the front of their house, have withdrawn the case. 

The pair's request prompted uproar after they went to court to try and have a cobblestone taken out of the pavement near the front door of their home in Amsterdam.

They argued that it reminded them of murder and that it attracted visitors, compromising their right to privacy.
