On 5 April, the European Court of Human Rights ruled in the “disappearance” case of Baysayeva v. Russia that the Russian Federation had violated the right to life and the right to liberty and security of Shakhid Baysayeva. The Court also found Russia responsible for violating the right of Mr Baysayeva’s wife to freedom from inhuman or degrading treatment and for failing to properly investigate the “disappearance” of her husband.
