One police officer was convicted of police brutality in relation to one of the applicants, N.J., regarding the incident and sentenced to one year’s imprisonment, with no information available as to whether the decision has ever become final. Two levels of prosecution dismissed the applicants’ complaints concerning the involvement of the remaining three officers in the alleged police brutality, noting that disciplinary measures had already been imposed on them. No oral evidence was heard from the applicant S.V., nor from the eyewitnesses proposed by the applicants, and the medical expert report submitted by the applicants was not taken into account. The applicants complain under Article 3 of the Convention that the domestic authorities had failed to carry out an effective investigation into the allegations of police brutality.     QUESTION TO THE PARTIES Having regard to the procedural protection from inhuman or degrading treatment (see   Labita v.   Italy   [GC], no.   26772/95, § 131, ECHR 2000-IV), was the investigation in the present case by the domestic authorities in compliance with Article   3 of the Convention?       APPENDIX No. Applicant’s Name Year of birth Nationality Place of residence 1.
