QUESTIONS

1. Has the right to life, as guaranteed by Article 2 of the Convention, been violated in respect of Mr Sirazhudin Aliyev and Mr Gazimagomed Abdullayev ? Having regard to the Court ’ s previous findings that when a person is detained Makhachkala, Dagestan, by unidentified State agents without any subsequent acknowledgment of the detention, this can be regarded as life- threatening (see , for example, Umarovy v. Russia , no. 2546/08, § 118 , 12 June 2012), was the authorities ’ reaction in t he present case sufficient to comply with the positive obligation to safeguard the right to life?

2. Having regard to the procedural protection of the right to life (see Salman v. Turkey [GC], no. 21986/93, § 104, ECHR 2000-VII), has the investigation in the present case by the domestic authorities been sufficient to meet their obligation to carry out an effective investigation, as required by Article 2 of the Convention?
