The applicant’s complaints under Articles 3, 6 and 10 of the Convention concerning the alleged ill-treatment in police custody and the alleged unfairness of the criminal defamation proceedings against him were communicated to the Azerbaijani Government (“the Government”).

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.
