THIRD SECTION
DECISION
Application no. 51315/17 Yevgeniy Veniaminovich KRASNOV against Russia and 13 other applications (see appended table)
The European Court of Human Rights (Third Section), sitting on 25 April 2019 as a Committee composed of:
Alena Poláčková, President, Dmitry Dedov, Jolien Schukking, judges,
and Liv Tigerstedt, Acting Deputy Section Registrar,
Having regard to the above application s lodged on the various dates indicated in the appended table ,
Having regard to the declarations submitted by the respondent Government requesting the Court to strike the applications out of the list of cases, and the applicant s ’ replies to these declarations,
Having deliberated, decides as follows:
FACTS AND PROCEDURE
The list of applicant s is set out in the appended table.
The applicants ’ complaints under Article 3 of the Convention concerning the inadequate conditions of detention were communicated to the Russian Government (“the Government”) . In some of the applications, complaints based on the same facts were also communicated under other provisions of the Convention.
The Government submitted declaration s with a view to resolving the issues raised by these complaints. They further requested the Court to strike out the application s .
The Government acknowledged the inadequate conditions of detention. In some of the applications, they further acknowledged that the domestic authorities had violated the applicants ’ rights guaranteed by other provisions of the Convention. They offered to pay the applicants the amount s detailed in the appended table and invited the Court to strike the applications out of the list of cases in accordance with Article 37 § 1 (c) of the Convention. The amount s would be converted into the currency of the respondent State at the rate applicable on the date of payment, and would be payable within three months from the date of notification of the Court ’ s decision. In the event of failure to pay these amounts within the above-mentioned three-month period, the Government undertook to pay simple interest on them , from the expiry of that period until settlement, at a rate equal to the marginal lending rate of the European Central Bank during the default period plus three percentage points.
The payment will constitute the final resolution of the case s .
The applicants informed the Court that they agreed to the terms of the declaration s .
THE LAW
Having regard to the similar subject matter of the applications, the Court finds it appropriate to examine them jointly in a single decision .
The Court finds that, following the applicants ’ express agreement to the terms of the declaration made by the Government, the case s should be treated as a friendly settlement between the parties.
It therefore takes note of the friendly settlement reached between the parties. It is satisfied that the settlement is based on respect for human rights as defined in the Convention and the Protocols thereto and finds no reasons to justify the continued examination of the application s .
In view of the above, it is appropriate to strike the case s out of the list as regards the complaints concerning the inadequate conditions of detention, as well as other complaints under the well-established case-law (see appended table), as covered by the unilateral declarations .
The applicant in application no. 16905/18 also complained about conditions of his detention in another facility.
The Court has examined the complaints and considers that, in the light of all the material in its possession and in so far as the matters complained of are within its competence, these complaints either do not meet the admissibility criteria set out in Articles 34 and 35 of the Convention or do not disclose any appearance of a violation of the rights and freedoms enshrined in the Convention or the Protocols thereto.
It follows that this part of application no. 16905/18 must be rejected in accordance with Article 35 § 4 of the Convention.
For these reasons, the Court, unanimously,
Decides to join the applications;
Decides to strike the application s out of its list of cases in accordance with Article 39 of the Convention as regards the complaints concerning the inadequate conditions of detention as covered by the unilateral declarations, as well as other complaints under the well-established case-law (see the appended table) ;
Declares the remainder of application no. 16905/18 inadmissible.
Done in English and notified in writing on 16 May 2019 .
