CASE OF K.I. v. FRANCE (no. 5560/19)
What was at stake
Whether the applicant’s removal to Russia would expose him to a real risk of treatment contrary to the prohibition of torture.
What the court decided
The Court found a violation of the prohibition of torture because the applicant faced a real risk of ill‑treatment if expelled to Russia, and it held that a finding of violation is sufficient satisfaction for the moral prejudice.
