Baku/09.02.23/Turan: The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) announced three decisions and rulings on more than 10 applications from Azerbaijan, the head of the group for monitoring the decisions of the European Court Khalid Agaliyev told Turan.
In the “Case of Jabbar Jabbarov and others v. Azerbaijan”, the applicants were 8 members of the "Muslim Unity Movement" who were arrested and convicted in connection with the Nardaran events of 2015.
All applicants complained of ill-treatment during detention and arrest. Their complaints of ill-treatment were not investigated by local courts, Agaliyev said.
The lawyer said that in the course of the communication, the government acknowledged the violations and offered to pay each of the applicants 8,000 euros in compensation and to remove the applications from the list of consideration.
However, the applicants did not accept this proposal, pointing out the lack of intention of the authorities to take measures to eliminate the consequences of the violation of their rights.
However, the ECHR did not see any grounds for continuing the investigation of the case and excluded the application from the list of cases under consideration. According to the decision, the government must pay within 3 months 8,000 euros to each of the applicants - Jabbar Jabbarov, Etibar Ismayilov, Abbas Huseynov, Ibrahim Khudaverdiyev, Ramil Seyfullayev, Mubariz IbraHimov, Jabir Aliyev and Ruzi Ismayilov.
Of these individuals, Jabbar Jabbarov and Abbas Huseynov still remain in prisons. In addition, Etibar Ismailov was again arrested a week ago on charges of drug trafficking on a large scale. The "Muslim Unity Movement" believes that the criminal case against him was fabricated.
In the case of Ilgar Rzayev v. Azerbaijan, the applicant complained that he had been arrested because his mother, at a rally in 2012, had sharply criticized the country's authorities.
In this case, the parties reached an amicable agreement - the government agreed to pay compensation to the applicant in the amount of 5,000 euros and another 1,500 euros for legal costs.
In the case of Zohra Hajiyeva v. Azerbaijan, the ECHR recognized the violation of the applicant's property rights. The applicant's property was expropriated for public use, but she was dissatisfied with the amount of compensation.
The ECHR decided to pay the applicant 4,220 euros in compensation for pecuniary damage, 3,000 euros for non-pecuniary damage and 500 euros for reimbursement of legal costs. ----16D06---
