How to read this section
This is a plain reading of published international standards against the facts recorded on this page. It is not a finding. No court, treaty body or UN special procedure has ruled on this case, and The Detained makes no assessment of guilt, innocence or state responsibility. Each entry below appears because a specific field on this record brings the standard into play, and says which field that was.
Standards engaged
07- 01Liberty and security of personICCPR, Article 9
Nobody may be deprived of liberty except on grounds and by procedures established by law. Anyone detained is entitled to have a court decide the lawfulness of the detention without delay, and to compensation if the detention was unlawful.
On this record: This record documents a deprivation of liberty beginning with the arrest recorded below.
Treaty text - 02Pre-trial detention as the exceptionICCPR, Article 9(3)
Detention before trial is meant to be the exception, not the rule. A person held on a criminal charge is entitled to trial within a reasonable time or to release, with release conditions where a guarantee of appearance is needed.
On this record: No verdict is recorded on this file, so the person is held pending proceedings.
Treaty text - 03Presumption of innocenceICCPR, Article 14(2)
Everyone charged with a criminal offence has the right to be presumed innocent until proved guilty according to law. Public authorities are not to prejudge the outcome.
On this record: Proceedings on this file are recorded as still open.
Treaty text - 04Fair hearing before an independent tribunalICCPR, Article 14
A fair and public hearing by a competent, independent and impartial tribunal established by law, with adequate time and facilities to prepare a defence, counsel of the person’s own choosing, and the right to examine witnesses.
On this record: This record carries a criminal prosecution under articles 275 УК and 282.4 УК.
Treaty text - 05Peaceful assembly and associationICCPR, Articles 21 and 22
The right of peaceful assembly and the right to freedom of association are to be respected, subject only to restrictions that are prescribed by law and necessary in a democratic society. General Comment No. 37 (2020) sets out how the Committee applies this to protest.
On this record: The case is documented as arising from protest or organising activity.
Treaty text - 06Freedom from torture and ill-treatmentICCPR and CAT, ICCPR article 7; CAT articles 2, 12, 13 and 15
The prohibition is absolute and no circumstance whatever may be invoked to justify it. Where there are reasonable grounds to believe torture has occurred, the state must carry out a prompt and impartial investigation on its own initiative, and any statement established to have been obtained by torture may not be used as evidence in any proceedings.
On this record: Torture or ill-treatment is reported on this file. The report has not been adjudicated by any court or treaty body.
Treaty text - 07Humane treatment and health care in detentionICCPR and the Nelson Mandela Rules, ICCPR article 10(1); Rules 24, 27 and 30 (2015)
Detained people are to be treated with humanity and respect for their inherent dignity. Health care is a state responsibility, prisoners are entitled to the same standard of care available in the community, and cases needing specialised treatment are to be transferred to a specialised institution or civil hospital.
On this record: Health concerns are recorded on this file.
Where a case like this is filed
The UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention sorts submissions into five categories. On the facts recorded here, a submission would most naturally be filed under:
- IIDetention resulting from the exercise of protected rightsThe conduct on this record is the exercise of a freedom the ICCPR protects, which is the question Category II asks.
Which category applies, and whether the detention is arbitrary at all, is for the Working Group to decide.
- UN Working Group on Arbitrary DetentionRoute open
Individual complaint asking the Working Group to find the detention arbitrary and to name a remedy.
Open for every state. Domestic remedies do not have to be exhausted first, and the person’s consent or that of their family is normally required.
How to submit - UN special proceduresRoute open
An urgent appeal or allegation letter to the Special Rapporteur on freedom of peaceful assembly and of association, the Special Rapporteur on torture and the Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights defenders.
Mandate holders can write to a government within days, which is why this is the fastest route on the list.
How to submit - UN Human Rights CommitteeRoute open
Individual communication under the First Optional Protocol, alleging breaches of the Covenant articles listed above.
Domestic remedies must be exhausted, or shown to be unavailable or ineffective in practice.
How to submit - UN Committee against TortureRoute open
Individual complaint under article 22 of the Convention against Torture.
This state has made the article 22 declaration, so the Committee can receive individual complaints.
How to submit - European Court of Human RightsRoute closed
Application after domestic remedies are exhausted, within the four month time limit.
The events dated on this record fall after 16 September 2022, after which the Court is no longer competent for this state.

ИИ-анализ — прочтите сначала
Все модели, стоящие за оценками на этой странице, разработаны и обучены нами самостоятельно, на нашей собственной базе задокументированных дел — ничего не передано «чёрному ящику». Мы работаем по принципу «стеклянного ящика»: каждую оценку можно раскрыть и увидеть, какие именно факторы её сформировали (панели «Откуда такая оценка?»), а полная методология обучения и калибровки опубликована.
Модели не видят нюансов. Оценки, прогнозы и резюме на этой странице формируются статистическими и языковыми моделями на основе собранных нами документов. Они могут быть неполными или ошибочными и не способны учесть юридические нюансы конкретного дела — прежде всего в вопросах наказания, где исход зависит от обстоятельств, недоступных модели.
Не для суда. Не используйте эти показатели напрямую в суде или в юридических процедурах. Это исследовательский инструмент, а не доказательство и не юридическая консультация. Перед использованием сверяйте каждую деталь с первоисточниками, указанными на этой странице.
Не приговор. Наши выводы описывают закономерности в задокументированных нами данных. Они не являются заключением о несправедливости конкретного дела — судить об этом могут только сами люди, их близкие и компетентные суды и трибуналы.
