The incident happened in 2011 when Huize Sint-Augustinus home in Diest refused to allow an elderly woman's doctor access to see her – when it was thought she was about to be given a lethal injection.
The home has been ordered to pay €6,000 (approx $6,600 or £5,000) in damaged to the family of the woman.
