The European Court of Human Rights pronounced a decision in the case of Nedelcu v. R. Moldova file no. 35149/10, Grecu v. R. Moldova file no. 32829/08 and Tretiacov v. R. Moldova file no. 28171/10. Thus, the High Court took the act of amicable settlement under the cases of the parties.
Ion Nedelcu, a victim of police officers, who was arrested and exposed to ill-treatments within the events of April 2009, will receive indemnification in the amount of 15.000 euro. Another victim, Tatiana Grecu, will receive indemnification in the amount of 10.000 euro. With regard to the case Tretiacov v. Moldova, the relevant three applicants will benefit from the following indemnification: Alexei Tretiacov and Andrei Mernii – 13.000 each, Natalia Tretiacova – 8.000 euro and 2000 euro as judicial costs.
It shall be recalled that, in the case of Tretiacov v. Moldova, based on the reference of Parliamentary Lawyer, the applicants were visited by doctors of RCTV “Memoria” and subsequently benefited from certain recovery assistance rendered by the Center.
Under all three cases, the applicants alleged the violation of article 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights, which stipulates ill-treatment by the police, inhuman and degrading prison conditions, lack of medical during the detention period, and inability to effectively investigate their complaints of ill-treatment. Further, they invoked the violation of article 13 of the Convention, as far as the applicants didn’t have any effective remedy against the alleged ill-treatments to which they had been exposed.
The applicants were represented in the court, as well, by lawyers and attorneys of the Association Promo-LEX.
