SECOND SECTION

Application no. 2122/16 Alexandr NAVROÈšKI against the Republic of Moldova lodged on 10 December 2015

SUBJECT MATTER OF THE CASE

The application concerns the applicant ’ s detention in pre-trial detention for three years and ten months before his conviction. He complains under Article 5 § 1 of the Convention that his detention was not lawful under domestic law, because it was too long. Since the applicant ’ s detention was longer than twelve months, the case raises issues which are similar to those examined in Savca v. the Republic of Moldova , no. 17963/08 , 15 March 2016. The applicant raises other complaints under Article 5 §§ 3 and 4 and under Article 13 of the Convention.

QUESTION tO THE PARTIES

Was the applicant ’ s pre-trial detention in breach of Article 5 § 1 of the Convention (see Savca v. the Republic of Moldova , no. 17963/08 , 15 March 2016 )?
