Galperin, the Representative of the Russian Federation to the European Court of Human Rights. 3.     The applicants complained under Article 2 and 3 of the Convention about the risk of death, torture and/or ill-treatment in case of their forced return to North Korea. They also complain, under Article 13 of the Convention, about the lack of effective domestic remedies in respect of their complaints under Articles 2 and 3. 4.     On 27 May 2019 the Court under Rule 39 indicated to the Russian Government that the applicants should not be removed to North Korea for the duration of the proceedings before the Court. The Court has further decided, under Rule 47 § 4, not to disclose the applicants’ identities to the public. 5.     On 17 September 2019 the Court decided to give notice to the Government of the applicants’ complaints detailed above. 6.     On 13 May 2020 the applicants were granted temporary asylum until 13   May 2021. The applicants’ representatives informed the Court of this fact by the letter of 19 May 2020. THE LAW 7.     The Court notes that previously it had decided to strike the cases out of the list when the applicants alleging the risk of death, torture and/or ill ‑ treatment in case of their forced return to North Korea were granted temporary asylum (see S.L. and C.C. v. Russia (dec.), no. 19115/19, 14   January 2020 (Committee)). 8.     In the light of the foregoing, and in the absence of any special circumstances regarding respect for the rights guaranteed by the Convention or its Protocols, the Court, in accordance with Article   37   §   1   (c) of the Convention, considers that it is no longer justified to continue the examination of the application. 9.     In view of the above, it is appropriate to strike the case out of the list. 10.     In accordance with Article   28 § 2 of the Convention, the present decision is final. Accordingly, the Court considers that the measure indicated to the Government under Rule   39 of the Rules of Court comes to an end. For these reasons, the Court, unanimously, Decides to strike the application out of its list of cases.
