Having regard to Article 25 of the Convention for the
Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms;
Having regard to the application introduced on 5 April 1989 by
F.D. and H.D. against Turkey and registered on 12 April 1989 under
file No. 14886/89;
Having regard to the report provided for in Rule 40 of the
Rules of Procedure of the Commission;
Having deliberated;
Decides as follows:
The applicants are a husband and wife, of Iranian nationality,
born in 1961 and 1960 respectively. Before the Commission they are
represented by Mr. J. Groen, a lawyer practising in the Netherlands.
The applicants complained that Turkish authorities had taken
them into custody and were going to deport them to Iran, where they
expected to be subjected to inhuman treatment because of their
opposition to the Moslem fundamentalist Government. They also
complained that they had no legal remedies in Turkey to prevent their
deportation. They invoked Articles 3 and 13 of the Convention.
The Commission communicated this application to the respondent
Government on 12 April 1989. By letter of 21 September 1989, the
Government informed the Commission that they could not locate the
applicants. By letter of 14 December 1989, the applicants'
representative informed the Commission that the applicants had
departed from Turkey in order to re-settle in Canada, and that they
did not wish to maintain the application.
Having regard to Article 30 para. 1 (a) of the Convention, the
Commission notes that the applicants do not intend to pursue this
petition. It finds no special circumstances regarding respect for
Human Rights as defined in the Convention which require the
continuation of the examination of the application, in accordance with
Article 30 para. 1 in fine of the Convention.
For these reasons, the Commission
DECIDES TO STRIKE THE APPLICATION OFF ITS LIST OF CASES
