On July 3, 2014, the Grand Chamber of the European Court of Human Rights (the Court) delivered its judgment in Georgia v. Russia (I), finding that the arrest, detention and expulsion from Russia of large numbers of Georgian nationals from September 2006 until January 2007 violated Russia’s obligations under the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). According to the press release, the Court found, upon examining the evidence, that “a coordinated policy of arresting, detaining and expelling Georgian nationals, amounting to an administrative practice, had been implemented in Russia,” which violated Article 4 of Protocol No. 4 (prohibiting the collective expulsion of aliens), Article 5(1) (right to liberty and security), Article 5(4) (right to judicial review of detention), Article 3 (prohibition on inhuman and degrading treatment), Article 13 (right to an effective remedy), and Article 38 (obligation to furnish all necessary facilities for the effective conduct of an investigation).
