THIRD SECTION

DECISION

Application no. 6851/19 Vyacheslav Anatolyevich PARUSHENKOV against Russia

The European Court of Human Rights (Third Section), sitting on 21 October 2021 as a Committee composed of:

Peeter Roosma, President, Dmitry Dedov, Andreas Zünd, judges,

and Viktoriya Maradudina, Acting Deputy Section Registrar,

Having regard to the above application lodged on 12 December 2018,

Having deliberated, decides as follows:

FACTS AND PROCEDURE

The applicant, Mr Vyacheslav Anatolyevich Parushenkov, was born in 1974. He was represented by Ms M.A. Belinskaya, a lawyer practising in St Petersburg.

The applicant’s complaints under Article 3, Article 6 §§ 1, 2, 3 (b) and (c) and Article 13 of the Convention concerning his detention in a glass cabin before the court were communicated to the Russian Government (“the Government”), who submitted observations on the admissibility and merits. The observations were forwarded to the applicant, who was invited to submit his own observations. No reply was received to the Registry’s letter.

By letter dated 10 May 2021 and sent to the applicant’s representative by the Electronic Communication System (eComms), the applicant was notified that the period allowed for submission of his observations had expired on 30 March 2021 and that no extension of time had been requested. The applicant’s attention was drawn to Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention, which provides that the Court may strike an application out of its list of cases where the circumstances lead to the conclusion that the applicant does not intend to pursue the application. This letter has not been downloaded by the representative and, therefore, no response followed.

THE LAW

In the light of the foregoing, and in the absence of any special circumstances regarding respect for the rights guaranteed by the Convention and the Protocols thereto, the Court, in accordance with Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention, considers that it is no longer justified to continue the examination of the application.

Accordingly, the case should be struck out of the list.

For these reasons, the Court, unanimously,

Decides to strike the application out of its list of cases.

Done in English and notified in writing on 18 November 2021.
