Russia , no. 47837/06, 18 September 2014, Fortalnov and Others v. Russia , nos. 7077/06 and 12 others, 26 June 2018). Some of the applicants also contest the lawfulness and reasonableness of their detention, as well as speediness of examination of their appeals against detention decisions. One applicant complains also under Article 3 of the Convention about his ill-treatment by electric shock during his unrecorded detention.   As shown in the table below, the applicants used one or two of the following remedies: 1.     Request to open criminal proceedings against policemen concerned and, when that request was refused, complaint to a court about the refusal under Article 125 of the Criminal Procedure Code (“the CCrP”); 2.     Complaint under Article 125 of the CCrP about unlawful actions of law-enforcement officials; 3.     Complaint to the court examining the application to place the applicant in pre-trial detention; 4.     Issue raised during the criminal proceedings against the applicant; 5.     Application to a court to calculate the prison term running from the alleged date of actual arrest; 6.     A civil action. Given the array of the used remedies the rapporteur proposes to seek the parties’ opinion on the effectiveness of those remedies for the purposes of the exhaustion requirement.     Application no.   Applicant’s name   Date and time (1)   of the applicant’s alleged arrest and (2)   when the arrest was formally recorded Total number of hours of unrecorded detention Type of exhaustion 1. 55770/11 Tekhnyuk (1) 06/08/2009 (1 p.m.) – (2) 07/08/2009 (11.50 a.m.) About 23 hours 1.

In particular, was there an effective remedy in respect of their alleged unrecorded detention available in theory and in practice at the relevant time? The Government are invited to submit relevant case-law examples.   2.     Were the applicants deprived of their liberty in breach of Article 5 § 1 of the Convention? In particular, was their detention recorded as required by Article 5 § 1 of the Convention (see Rakhimberdiyev v. Russia , no.   47837/06, 18 September 2014, Fortalnov and Others v. Russia , nos.   7077/06 and 12 others, 26 June 2018)? CASE SPECIFIC QUESTIONS 1.     (15270/17, Khudaynatov v. Russia ) Was the applicant’s detention “in accordance with a procedure prescribed by law”, as required by Article   5   §   1 of the Convention? In particular, was the applicant’s detention authorised by a court within forty-eight hours of his arrest, as required by national law?   2.     (15270/17, Khudaynatov v. Russia ) Did the authorities provide relevant and sufficient reasons for the applicant’s placement in pre-trial detention as required by Article 5 § 3 of the Convention?   3.     (81932/17, Ichiyev v. Russia ; 32241/18) Was the procedure by which the applicant sought to challenge the lawfulness of his pre-trial detention in conformity with Article 5 § 4 of the Convention? In particular, did the length of those proceedings comply with the “speedy” requirement of Article 5 § 4 of the Convention (see Snyatovskiy v. Russia , no. 10341/07, §   62, 13 December 2016)?   4.     (67791/17, Vasilyev v.
