CASE OF KUNSHUGAROV v. TÜRKİYE (no. 60811/15)
What was at stake
Whether Turkey's extradition of the applicant to a country where he faced a real risk of torture and the conditions of his detention violated the prohibition of torture and the right to liberty.
What the court decided
The Court held that the applicant’s extradition exposed him to a real risk of torture, that his detention conditions were inhuman or degrading, and that he was denied an effective review of the lawfulness of his detention, constituting violations of the prohibition of torture and the right to liberty, while finding no violation of the right to effective remedy or the right to life, and no breach of the lawfulness of his initial arrest and detention.
