Information has to be false for it to be defamation, it's in the definition. The news article they are trying to de-list does not contain false information.

  It doesn't have to be false for it to be defamatory. It has to be intended to ruin someone's reputation in an unwarranted manner.

    Not in any legal jurisdiction I'm aware of, and certainly not the EU Courts. Truth is an absolute defense against defamation.
