The Court has already found that the requirement of notification had no basis in Russian law and was not necessary in a democratic society (see Krupko and Others v. Russia , no. 26587/07, §§ 54-57, 26 June 2014). QUESTION tO THE PARTIES Was there a violation of Article 9 of the Convention on account of the finding of the applicant’s liability for holding a religious meeting in a café without prior notification to the authorities (see Krupko and Others v.   Russia, no. 26587/07, §§ 54-57, 26 June 2014)?
