All of the applicants submitted that their attempts to initiate criminal investigation in connection with the incidents proved futile. The relevant details regarding the applicants’ allegations and their version of factual circumstances are reflected in the attached appendices. The information regarding the alleged breach of the substantive aspect of Article 3 in contained in Appendix no. 1. The reaction of the domestic authorities to the applicants’ complaints is reflected in Appendix no. 2. Some applicants also raised other complaints, subject of well-established case-law of the Court (see Appendix no. 3). The applicant in case no. 21396/11 also complained under Articles 3 and   13 of the Convention about the beating by a co-detainee and the lack of investigation in this connection. The applicant in case 64761/13 also complained under Articles 8 and 13 about his transfer to a remote prison facility far away from his family and the lack of domestic remedy in this connection. The applicants in cases nos. 71716/14 and 372/15 complained about the use of handcuffing in respect of them, which was allegedly unjustified and in breach of Articles 3 and 13 of the Convention.   The table of cases:   No. Application number Introduction date Name of the applicant(s); date of birth place of residence Represented by 1. 21396/11 29/03/2011 Aleksey Alekseyevich ALEKSANDROV 24/01/1958 Kyshtym Vladislav Valeryevich PROZOROV 2. 45750/13 06/06/2013 Viktor Nikolayevich BABAK 10/08/1967 Kharp   3. 64761/13 18/09/2013 Vitaliy Viktorovich STARIKOV 07/01/1980 Krasnoyarsk   4. 71716/14 21/10/2014 Anton Viktorovich ZABIYAKA 14/07/1975 Amursk   5. 372/15 31/07/2015 Aleksey Gennadyevich KUDRYAVTSEV 01/12/1961 St Petersburg   QUESTIONS 1.     Having regard to the injuries found on the applicants after the time spent by them in State custody, have the applicants been subjected to torture, or inhuman or degrading treatment, in breach of Article 3 of the Convention (see, among other authorities, Razzakov v. Russia , no.   57519/09, 5   February 2015; Gorshchuk v. Russia , no. 31316/09, 6   October 2015; Turbylev v.   Russia , no.   4722/09, 6   October 2015; Fartushin v. Russia , no.   38887/09, 8   October 2015; Aleksandr Andreyev v. Russia , no.   2281/06, 23   February 2016; and Leonid Petrov v. Russia , no. 52783/08, 11   October 2016)?   2.     Have the authorities discharged their burden of proof by providing a plausible or satisfactory and convincing explanation of how the applicants’ injuries were caused (see Selmouni , cited above, § 87, and Salman v. Turkey [GC], no.   21986/93, §   100, ECHR 2000 ‑ VII and Bouyid v. Belgium [GC], no.   23380/09, §   83 and further, ECHR 2015)?   3.     Did the authorities carry out an effective investigation, in compliance with the procedural obligation under Articles 3 and 13 of the Convention (see Lyapin v.   Russia , no.   46956/09, §§   125-40, 24 July 2014), having regard to:   (a)     the investigating authorities’ refusals to open criminal cases and investigate the applicants’ allegations of ill-treatment by the State officials, and the overruling of those refusals as unlawful and unsubstantiated by higher investigative authorities or courts, and   (b)     the investigating authorities’ inability to implement full investigative measures within the framework of the pre-investigation inquiries, before and/or after amendments to the Code of Criminal Procedure introduced by Federal Law no. 23-FZ of 4 March 2013, for example, confrontations, identification parades, searches, and so forth?   4.     As regards case no. 21396/11, have the authorities discharged their obligation under the procedural aspect of Article 3 of the Convention in respect of the alleged beating of the applicant by another detainee(s)?   5.     As regards case no. 64761/13, has there been an interference with the applicant’s right to respect for their private and family life, within the meaning of Article 8 § 1 of the Convention, in view of his respective transfer to a penitentiary facility outside his home regions and the effects those decisions had on the applicant’s contacts with his family members? If so, did the interference in question fulfill the criteria set out in Article   8   §   2 of the Convention (see Khodorkovskiy and   Lebedev v. Russia , nos.   11082/06 and 13772/05, §§   835-51, 25 July 2013)? In this connection, (a)     having regard to the terms of Article 73 of the Russian Code on the Execution of Sentences (“CES”), was the interference in question “in accordance with law”; (b)     did it pursue one or more legitimate aim(s); and (c)     was it “necessary” for the pursuit of such an aim, in other words, supported by relevant and sufficient reasons and proportionate? More specifically, did the domestic authorities carry out a balancing exercise to assess proportionality of the impugned transfers to the aim(s) sought? Does Article   81 of the Code on the Execution of Sentences provide for a possibility of carrying out such balancing exercise after a detainee’s transfer to a certain facility?   6.     In respect of the same case, did the applicant have effective domestic remedies for his complaints under Article 8 of the Convention at his disposal, as required by Article   13 of the Convention? In particular, bearing in mind the wording of Article 81 of the CES, is there an available avenue of redress allowing quashing the decision by the agencies of the Federal Penitentiary Service on a detainee’s placement in a facility located outside of his or her home region of Russia prior to or after its implementation on the grounds of an alleged interference with the detainee’s private and/or family life?   7.     As regards cases nos. 71716/14 and 372/15, was the use of handcuffing in respect of the applicants in the episodes referred to in the table appropriate and compatible with Article 3 of the Convention? Were there sufficient reasons to expect any violent acts from the applicants? Were the court convoy premises secure enough to avoid handcuffing? (see, e.g. Kashavelov v. Bulgaria , no. 891/05, §§ 38-40)? Also, did the applicants have an effective remedy within the meaning of Article 13 with regard to allegedly unnecessary handcuffing?     No   Application No. and Title APPENDIX No. 1 Article 3 - Substantive aspect ARREST ALLEGED ILL-TREATMENT EVIDENCE Date Time Facts Region Town Street Entity Date Time Location Alleged Facts Perpetrator(s) Date Doc Type Authority Description of Injuries 1. 21396/11 Aleksandrov v.   Russia       From 16/02/2010 to 08/03/2010 daily, twice a day UP-288/T Minusinsk, Krasnoyarsk Region Beaten on his head, on the liver area, his legs were pulled in opposite directions to make him "do the splits" Prison employees 18/03/2010 Examination Investigator Torn skin on both sides of the groin; bruise on the right side of the chest; scar on the left eyebrow; deformation of the nose bones 30/03/2010 Forensic examination Krasnoyarsk Regional Forensic Bureau Scar on the face dating 4 to 6 months before the examination 16/07/2010 UP-288/T Minusinsk, Krasnoyarsk Region Broken nose in a fight with a co-detainee Co-detainee O. 19/07/2010 Medical certificate (выписка из медицинской карты) cited in the refusal to prosecute of 26/10/2010 Scratch on the nose, bruise on the right side of the nose 20/08/2010 Forensic examination cited in the refusal to prosecute of 26/10/2010 Injury of the nose manifested in a scratch and a bruise on the face 26/10/2010 Testimony of a forensic expert cited in the refusal to prosecute of 26/10/2010 Contradictory descriptions of the X ‑ ray results: 20/07/2010 - fracture of the nose bones without displace-ment; 21/07/2010 - displaced open fracture of the nose bones 2. 45750/13 Babak v.   Russia       28/08/2009 IK-7 in the Vladimir Region The applicant was placed in a punishment ward where under unestablished circumstances (administration claimed that he was subdued after attack on the warden on 28/08/2016) he received the following injuries: multiple fractured ribs on the right side, internal blunt chest and waist injuries, shick lung and pneumoderma.   Warders 21/11/2011 Abstract of the medical record Deputy head of the prison’s medical ward On 29/08/2009 the applicant was transported to the medical ward with multiple fractured ribs on the right side, internal blunt chest and waist injuries, sick lung and pneumoderma. 3. 64761/13 Starikov v.   Russia       During detention 09/03/2010 Pre-trail detention cell in SIZO-2 Novokuznetsk The applicant was beaten by a cellmate Mikhail, as result- closed fracture of the elbow.
