He was represented before the Court by Mr V. Jereghi and Ms N. Bayram, lawyers practising in Chişinău and members of the Institute for Human Rights Organisation. The Moldovan Government (“the Government”) were represented by their Agent, Mr V. Grosu. The applicant’s complaint under Article 5 of the Convention was communicated to the Government, who submitted their observations on the admissibility and merits. The observations were forwarded to the applicant, who was invited to submit his own observations. No reply was received to the Registry’s letter. By registered letter dated 28 April 2011 the applicant’s representatives were notified that the period allowed for submission of their observations had expired on 3 September 2010 and that no extension of time had been requested. The applicant’s representative’s attention was drawn to Article   37 § 1 (a) of the Convention, which provides that the Court may strike a case out of its list of cases where the circumstances lead to the conclusion that the applicant does not intend to pursue the application. However, no response has been received. THE LAW The Court considers that, in these circumstances, the applicant may be regarded as no longer wishing to pursue his application, within the meaning of Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention. Furthermore, in accordance with Article   37 § 1 in fine , the Court finds no special circumstances regarding respect for human rights as defined in the Convention and its Protocols which require the continued examination of the case. In view of the above, it is appropriate to strike the case out of the list. For these reasons, the Court unanimously Decides to strike the application out of its list of cases.   Santiago Quesada   Josep Casadevall   Registrar   President
