FIFTH SECTION
Application no 1776/09 Solmaz ORUJOVA against Azerbaijan and 30 other applications (see list appended)
STATEMENT OF FACTS
The applicants are nationals of various States and private companies. Their particulars are indicated in the Appendix.
The circumstances of the cases
The facts of the cases, as submitted by the applicants, may be summarised as follows.
On various dates various State authorities expropriated or demolished the applicants ’ houses, flats, non-residential properties and/or plots of land (“the properties”), on the basis of orders issued by them or without any orders, for various reasons (see Appendix).
By way of compensation for the expropriated properties, some applicants were paid a certain amount of money, while others were provided with other properties. Some applicants were not given any compensation at all (see Appendix).
On various dates the applicants lodged a complaint with the respective first-instance courts (see Appendix).
They complained of breaches of their property rights, in particular that the expropriation or demolition of their properties had not been carried out in accordance with the law.
They also complained that the compensation offered or already provided by the State authorities had been unfair and inadequate, arguing that the actual market value of their properties had been much higher or asking for monetary compensation instead of alternative properties. In support of their complaints, some applicants submitted expert valuations of their properties.
The applicants asked for the return or restoration of their properties or fair compensation. Some applicants also lodged claims in respect of pecuniary damage, including loss of profit, and non-pecuniary damage for their suffering as a result of the expropriation or demolition of their properties.
On various dates (see Appendix), the relevant first-instance courts dismissed or, in some cases, partly upheld the applicants ’ complaints, ordering the State authorities to pay them a certain amount of money or provide a similar property as compensation (see Appendix).
On various dates (see Appendix) the appellate courts and the Supreme Court dismissed or partly upheld the applicants ’ appeals, largely reiterating the lower courts ’ reasoning.
The judgments of the domestic courts in applications nos. 13058/10, 16276/13, 36697/16 and 67851/12 have not been enforced.
In respect of application no. 32088/11 it is to be noted that only two applicants lodged a cassation appeal with the Supreme Court which were dismissed as no breach of their rights had been found.
After repeated pressure by officials of the Baku City Executive Authority, on 15 January and 11 March 2013 the applicants in application no. 67851/12 signed statements in a public notary ’ s office indicating that they agreed with the amount of compensation proposed and waived all pending and future claims before the domestic courts and the Court. On an unspecified date they also signed a sale contract for the respective property, which had already been demolished, on the basis of which on 17 March 2013 the BCEA paid them the money actually to be paid under the judgment. On 7 May 2013 the public notary ’ s office declared the registration of their statements invalid as they had been signed under duress.
On 8 August 2014 Mr I. Aliyev, the lawyer of the applicant in application no. 54572/13, was arrested on charges of tax evasion, illegal entrepreneurship and abuse of authority. During a search of his office, a number of documents were seized by the State authorities, including all the case files relating to applications before the Court that were in his possession as a representative. On 25 October 2014 some of the seized documents were returned to Mr J. Javadov, Mr. I. Aliyev ’ s counsel.
COMPLAINTS
1. The applicants complain under Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 to the Convention that the expropriation/demolition of their properties amounted to an unlawful and unjustified interference with their property rights. They further complain that the compensation provided for the properties was unfair and inadequate.
2. The applicants (except those in applications nos. 48665/13 and 39211/17) complain under Article 6 § 1 of the Convention that the civil proceedings instituted by them in connection with the expropriation/demolition of their properties were unfair; in particular that the domestic courts delivered unreasoned judgments by failing to properly verify the compliance of the interference with the applicable domestic legislation.
3. The applicants in applications nos. 13058/10, 16276/13 and 36697/16 complain under Article 6 § 1 of the Convention about the non-enforcement of the respective judgments of the domestic courts.
4. The applicants in application no. 67851/12 complain under Article 6 § 1 of the Convention about the non-enforcement of the respective judgment of the domestic court and payment of the sum due by the BCEA on the basis of a sale contract for the property, already demolished, and after signing statements indicating that they agreed with the amount and waived all pending and future claims before the domestic courts and the Court.
5. The applicant in application no. 12836/13 complains Article 6 § 1 of the Convention that his right to a trial within a reasonable time was breached.
6. The applicants in applications nos. 61496/12, 16276/13, 70227/14 and 19381/16 complain under Article 8 of the Convention that the unlawful expropriation or demolition of their properties and/or their unlawful eviction from them amounted to a violation of their right to respect for their home.
7. The applicants in applications nos. 1776/09, 4306/09, 64762/09, 1213/11, 66035/11, 54136/12, 61496/12, 67851/12, 7949/13, 12836/13, 16276/13, 19381/16, 36697/16, 43408/16 and 39211/17 complain, under Article 13 of the Convention in conjunction with Articles 6 and 8 of the Convention and Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 to the Convention, that they were not afforded a remedy providing effective protection against the violation of their rights.
8. The applicant in application no. 54572/13 complains that by seizing his case file from Mr I. Aliyev ’ s office in August 2014, the State hindered the effective exercise of his right of application under Article 34 of the Convention.
9. The applicants in application no. 67851/12 complain that by pressuring them to sign the statements waiving pending or future complaints before the Court, the State hindered the effective exercise of their right of application under Article 34 of the Convention.
COMMON QUESTIONS
1. Were the applicants deprived of their possessions in the public interest, and in accordance with the conditions provided for by law, within the meaning of Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 to the Convention? Moreover, was the compensation provided to them fair and adequate?
In particular, how was that deprivation classified under domestic law (expropriation, nationalisation, confiscation, or other)? What deed (document or physical action of a public authority) constituted an interference in the present cases? What was the law applicable to the relevant form of deprivation of property? What were the substantive and procedural conditions required by the applicable law for the relevant form of deprivation of property to be lawful, and were those conditions complied with in the present cases? What was the legal basis for the actions and decisions of the relevant State authorities in the present cases, and did they have competence under domestic law to take decisions resulting in the deprivation of privately owned property, as in the present cases?
If the interference was lawful, did it impose an excessive individual burden on the applicants (see, mutatis mutandis, Immobiliare Saffi v. Italy, [GC], no. 22774/93, § 59, ECHR 1999-V)?
2. Did the applicants (except those in applications nos. 48665/13 and 39211/17) have a fair hearing in the determination of their civil rights and obligations in the proceedings concerning the violation of their property rights, in accordance with Article 6 § 1 of the Convention? In particular, was the applicants ’ right to a reasoned judgment respected?
CASE SPECIFIC QUESTIONS
1. In respect of application no. 32088/11:
Did all the applicants exhaust the domestic remedies as required by Article 35 § 1 of the Convention? In particular, in view of the Supreme Court ’ s decision on the appeal on points of law lodged by two of the applicants, can that remedy be considered effective within the meaning of the above provision in respect of the other applicants who failed to avail themselves of it?
2. In respect of applications nos. 13058/10, 16276/13 and 36697/16:
Was the non-enforcement of the judgments in the applicants ’ favour contrary to Article 6 § 1 of the Convention?
3. In respect of application no. 67851/12:
Was the non-enforcement of the respective judgment of the domestic court and, instead, payment of the sum due to the applicants by the Baku City Executive Authority (“the BCEA”) on the basis of a sale contract regarding their property allegedly concluded unde r pressure, contrary to Article 6 § 1 of the Convention?
4. In respect of application no. 12836/13:
Was the length of the civil proceedings in breach of the “reasonable time” requirement of Article 6 § 1 of the Convention?
5. In respect of applications nos. 61496/12, 16276/13, 70227/14 and 19381/16:
Has there been an interference with the applicants ’ right to respect for their home, within the meaning of Article 8 § 1 of the Convention, on account of the expropriation/demolition of their properties and their eviction from them by the State authorities? If so, was that interference in accordance with the law and necessary in terms of Article 8 § 2?
6. In respect of applications nos. 1776/09, 4306/09, 64762/09, 1213/11, 66035/11, 54136/12, 61496/12, 67851/12, 7949/13, 12836/13, 16276/13, 19381/16, 36697/16, 43408/16 and 39211/17:
Did the applicants have at their disposal an effective domestic remedy for their complaints under Articles 6 and 8 of the Convention and Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 to the Convention, as required by Article 13 of the Convention?
7. In respect of application no. 54572/13:
In view of the seizure of the applicant ’ s case file from Mr I. Aliyev ’ s office on 8 and 9 August 2014, has the State hindered the effective exercise of the applicant ’ s right of application under Article 34 of the Convention?
8. In respect of application no. 67851/12:
In view of the alleged pressure by the officials of the BCEA on the applicants to sign statements that also included a waiver of pending or future complaints before the Court, has the State hindered the effective exercise of the applicants ’ right of application under Article 34 of the Convention?
9. The parties are requested to provide, where relevant and available, necessary documentary evidence in support of their replies and submissions, excluding the documents which have already been sent to the Court.
