ROMANIA<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>(Application no. 31928\/16 and 19 others \u2013 see appended list)<\/em><br \/>\nJUDGMENT<br \/>\nSTRASBOURG<br \/>\n16 December 2021<\/p>\n<p>This judgment is final but it may be subject to editorial revision.<\/p>\n<p><strong>In the case of Biseric\u0103 and Others v. Romania,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The European Court of Human Rights (Fourth Section), sitting as a Committee composed of:<\/p>\n<p>Armen Harutyunyan, President,<br \/>\nJolien Schukking,<br \/>\nAna Maria Guerra Martins, judges,<br \/>\nand Viktoriya Maradudina, Acting Deputy Section Registrar,<\/p>\n<p>Having deliberated in private on 25 November 2021,<\/p>\n<p>Delivers the following judgment, which was adopted on that date:<\/p>\n<p><strong>PROCEDURE<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1. The case originated in applications against Romania lodged with the Court under Article\u00a034 of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms (\u201cthe Convention\u201d) on the various dates indicated in the appended table.<\/p>\n<p>2. The Romanian Government (\u201cthe\u00a0Government\u201d) were given notice of the applications.<\/p>\n<p><strong>THE FACTS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>3. The list of applicants and the relevant details of the applications are set out in the appended table.<\/p>\n<p>4. The applicants complained of the inadequate conditions of their detention.<\/p>\n<p><strong>THE LAW<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I. JOINDER OF THE APPLICATIONS<\/p>\n<p>5. Having regard to the similar subject matter of the applications, the Court finds it appropriate to examine them jointly in a single judgment.<\/p>\n<p>II. ALLEGED VIOLATION OF ARTICLE\u00a03 OF THE CONVENTION<\/p>\n<p>6. The applicants complained principally of the inadequate conditions of their detention. They relied on Article 3 of the Convention, which reads as follows:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Article 3<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo one shall be subjected to torture or to inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>7. The Court notes that the applicants were kept in detention in poor conditions. The details of the applicants\u2019 detention are indicated in the appended table. The Court refers to the principles established in its case\u2011law regarding inadequate conditions of detention (see, for instance, Mur\u0161i\u0107 v.\u00a0Croatia [GC], no.\u00a07334\/13, \u00a7\u00a7\u00a096\u2011101, ECHR 2016). It reiterates in particular that a serious lack of space in a prison cell weighs heavily as a factor to be taken into account for the purpose of establishing whether the detention conditions described are \u201cdegrading\u201d from the point of view of Article\u00a03 and may disclose a violation, both alone or taken together with other shortcomings (see Mur\u0161i\u0107, cited above, \u00a7\u00a7\u00a0122\u201141, and Ananyev and Others v.\u00a0Russia, nos.\u00a042525\/07 and 60800\/08, \u00a7\u00a7\u00a0149\u201159, 10\u00a0January 2012).<\/p>\n<p>8. In the leading case of Rezmive\u0219 and Others v. Romania, nos. 61467\/12 and 3 others, 25 April 2017, the Court already found a violation in respect of issues similar to those in the present case.<\/p>\n<p>9. Having examined all the material submitted to it and the arguments raised by the parties, including the Government\u2019s objection related to the non\u2011exhaustion of domestic remedies, the Court has not found any fact or argument capable of persuading it to reach a different conclusion on the admissibility and merits of these complaints. Having regard to its case-law on the subject (including its findings in the recent case of Polgar v. Romania, no. 39412\/19, \u00a7\u00a7 94-97, 20 July 2021), the Court considers that in the instant case the applicants\u2019 conditions of detention, as described in the table appended below, were inadequate.<\/p>\n<p>10. These complaints are therefore admissible and disclose a breach of Article 3 of the Convention.<\/p>\n<p>III. REMAINING COMPLAINTS<\/p>\n<p>11. In applications nos.\u00a043546\/16, 44828\/16, 48620\/16 and 29241\/17, the applicants also raised other complaints under Article 3 of the Convention.<\/p>\n<p>12. The Court has examined the applications listed in the appended table and considers that, in the light of all the material in its possession and in so far as the matters complained of are within its competence, these complaints either do not meet the admissibility criteria set out in Articles\u00a034 and\u00a035 of the Convention or do not disclose any appearance of a violation of the rights and freedoms enshrined in the Convention or the Protocols thereto.<\/p>\n<p>It follows that this part of the applications must be rejected in accordance with Article\u00a035\u00a0\u00a7\u00a04 of the Convention.<\/p>\n<p>IV. APPLICATION OF ARTICLE\u00a041 OF THE CONVENTION<\/p>\n<p>13. Article\u00a041 of the Convention provides:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf the Court finds that there has been a violation of the Convention or the Protocols thereto, and if the internal law of the High Contracting Party concerned allows only partial reparation to be made, the Court shall, if necessary, afford just satisfaction to the injured party.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>14. Regard being had to the documents in its possession and to its case\u2011law (see, in particular, Rezmive\u0219 and Others, cited above), the Court considers it reasonable to award the sums indicated in the appended table.<\/p>\n<p>15. The Court further considers it appropriate that the default interest rate should be based on the marginal lending rate of the European Central Bank, to which should be added three percentage points.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FOR THESE REASONS, THE COURT, UNANIMOUSLY,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1. Decides to join the applications;<\/p>\n<p>2. Declares the complaints concerning the inadequate conditions of detention, for the periods specified in the appended table, admissible, and the remainder of the applications inadmissible;<\/p>\n<p>3. Holds that these complaints disclose a breach of Article\u00a03 of the Convention concerning the inadequate conditions of detention in respect of the periods specified in the appended table;<\/p>\n<p>4. Holds<\/p>\n<p>(a) that the respondent State is to pay the applicants, within three months, the amounts indicated in the appended table, to be converted into the currency of the respondent State at the rate applicable at the date of settlement;<\/p>\n<p>(b) that from the expiry of the above-mentioned three months until settlement simple interest shall be payable on the above amounts at a rate equal to the marginal lending rate of the European Central Bank during the default period plus three percentage points.<\/p>\n<p>Done in English, and notified in writing on 16 December 2021, pursuant to Rule\u00a077\u00a0\u00a7\u00a7\u00a02 and\u00a03 of the Rules of Court.<\/p>\n<p>Viktoriya
