Appendix to Resolution CM/ResDH(2010)189   Information about the measures to comply with the judgment in the case of Todev against Bulgaria     Introductory case summary   This case concerns the applicant’s detention in psychiatric hospital in 2002 to undergo medical examinations at the behest of prosecutors in proceedings concerning psychiatric confinement (violations of Article 5§1) and the fact that the applicant had no opportunity to bring judicial proceedings to challenge the lawfulness of his detention (violation of Article 5 § 4).     I.   Payment of just satisfaction and individual measures   a) Details of just satisfaction   Pecuniary damage Non-pecuniary damage Costs and expenses Total - 2,000 EUR 900 EUR 2,900 EUR Paid on 20/11/2008   b) Individual measures   The applicant was released in September 2002. He died prior to the judgment of the European Court.   In these circumstances, no other individual measure was considered necessary by the Committee of Ministers.     II.   General measures   These cases present similarities to the Varbanov case (judgment of 05/10/2000) closed by Resolution CM/ResDH(2010)40, following the adoption of a new Helth law in 2004 which provides for a new procedure concerning psychiatric confinement and which took effect from 01/01/2005.     III.   Conclusions of the respondent state   The government considers that no individual measure is required, apart from the payment of the just satisfaction, that the general measures adopted will prevent similar violations and that Bulgaria has thus complied with its obligations under Article   46, paragraph 1 of the Convention.   [1] Adopted by the Committee of Ministers on 2 December 2010 at the 1100th meeting of the Ministers’ Deputies
