SECOND SECTION

Application no. 31174/09 Münire DEMİ REL against Turkey lodged on 21 May 2009

SUBJECT MATTER OF THE CASE

The application concerns the alleged unfairness of the criminal proceedings under which the applicant was convicted as a result of the use by the trial court of evidence allegedly obtained through ill-treatment and in the absence of a lawyer from G.Ç. and S.K. in the course of their police interview and identity parade which had taken place when they were allegedly held incommunicado while in police custody for fourteen and nine days respectively (see Erkapic v. Croatia , no. 51198/08, 25 April 2013; Ömer Güner v. Turkey , no. 28338/07, 4 September 2018; and compare Dominka v. Slovakia , ( dec. ) no. 14630/12, §§ 28-36, 3 April 2018).

QUESTION tO THE PARTIES

Did the applicant have a fair trial within the meaning of Article 6 §§ 1 and 2 of the Convention? In particular, did the use of evidence obtained by G.Ç. and S.K. allegedly through ill-treatment and in the absence of a lawyer to convict the applicant prejudice the overall fairness against the applicant ( see Erkapic v. Croatia , no. 51198/08, 25 April 2013; Ömer Güner v. Turkey , no. 28338/07, 4 September 2018; and compare Dominka v. Slovakia , ( dec. ) no. 14630/12, §§ 28-36, 3 April 2018) ?
