| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [KavkazUzel] The European Court of Human Rights recognized the violation of the rights of Islam Yandiyev, sentenced to life in prison in the case of the terrorist attack at Domodedovo Airport,
As the "Caucasian Knot" wrote, the natives of Ingushetia, brothers Islam and Ilez Yandiev, Akhmed Evloev and Bashir Khamkhoev, were involved in the case of the terrorist attack in Domodedovo. They denied their guilt. The court sentenced them to life terms, but the appeal court upheld the sentence. The European Court of Human Rights today considered the complaint of Islam Yandiyev, who is serving a life sentence in the case of the terrorist attack at Domodedovo Airport, the Kavkaz.Realii publication reported today*. As follows from the decision in the case "Yandiev v. Russia", published today on the court's website, he complained about overcrowding - about a person on a train, which for more than a month, from December 17, 2017 to January 26, 2018, transported him to the place of serving his sentence, accounted for less than three square meters of space, as well as the absence or poor quality of bedding, lack of privacy for the toilet, lack of fresh air, cold, insufficient lighting, limited access to warm water. The court found that Article 3 of the Human Rights Convention on the prohibition of inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment had been violated in relation to Yandiev and awarded him compensation of one thousand euros. Russia refused to implement the decisions of the ECHR. On June 11, 2022, Vladimir Putin signed a bill on non-execution of ECHR decisions made after March 15 of the same year. On September 16, Russia ceased to be a party to the European Convention on Human Rights. The ECHR stated that it retains competence to consider applications directed against Russia, provided that they were filed before this date. In April, it became known that the Supreme Court of Russia refused to satisfy the claim of Islam Yandiev, who is serving a prison sentence in the Khabarovsk Territory, with a request to give him the Tetris game. In 2020, a package containing Tetris was sent to his colony. Correctional officers did not give Yandiev the game because it is an “electronic storage medium,” that is, an item that prisoners are prohibited from using. Yandiev objected that this was a board game that did not provide access to the Internet. He filed an administrative claim in court. In 2021, the Nazran District Court of Ingushetia refused to satisfy his request. The convict filed an appeal - the appellate court considered the actions of the FSIN employees to be illegal and ordered the game to be returned to Yandiev, but the Supreme Court banned him from using the game, RBC reported on April 27. The "Caucasian Knot" also wrote that in the appeal against life imprisonment, Islam Yandiyev's defense, without challenging the court's arguments about his guilt, stated that the punishment of life imprisonment is excessively harsh and the sentence is unfair. The defense motivated its position by the fact that “Yandiev actively participated in solving the crime, but the court did not take this circumstance into account.” Yandiev also stated in court that he testified against his brother Ilez in connection with the pressure put on him . “They constantly threatened me that they would kill my father, my mother, there were threats against the family that they would blow up the house if I didn’t give the necessary testimony,” Islam Yandiev said then.
