The applicants’ complaints under Article 5 § 3 of the Convention concerning the lack of justification for their pre-trial detention were communicated to the Azerbaijani Government (“the Government”). In applications nos. 57389/22, 20819/23 and 26392/23, the applicants’ complaints under Article 6 § 2 of the Convention concerning the alleged infringement of their right to the presumption of innocence was also communicated to the Government. The Court received the friendly-settlement declarations, signed by the parties, under which the applicants agreed to waive any further claims against Azerbaijan in respect of the facts giving rise to these applications, subject to an undertaking by the Government to pay them the amounts detailed in the appended table. These amounts will be converted into the currency of the respondent State at the rate applicable on the date of payment, and will be payable within three months from the date of notification of the Court’s decision.

The payment will constitute the final resolution of the cases.

The Court takes note of the friendly settlement reached between the parties.
