The applicants ’ attention was drawn to Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention, which provides that the Court may strike a case out of its list of cases where the circumstances lead to the conclusion that the applicant does not intend to pursue the application.

It also concludes, having regard to Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention, that the applicants do not intend to pursue their applications.
