SUBJECT MATTER OF THE CASE<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. The present applications mainly concern the arrest and pre-trial detention of the applicants in the aftermath of the coup attempt of 15\u00a0July 2016, on suspicion of their membership of an organisation described by the Turkish authorities as the \u201cFetullahist Terrorist Organisation \/ Parallel State Structure\u201d (Fetullah\u00e7\u0131 Ter\u00f6r \u00d6rg\u00fct\u00fc \/ Paralel Devlet Yap\u0131lanmas\u0131, hereinafter referred to as \u201cFET\u00d6\/PDY\u201d), which was considered by the authorities to be behind the coup attempt (further information regarding the events that unfolded after the coup attempt, including the details of the state of emergency declared by the respondent Government and the ensuing notice of derogation given to the Secretary General of the Council of Europe, as well as the legislative developments that followed the declaration of the state of emergency, may be found in the case of Ba\u015f v. Turkey, no. 66448\/17, \u00a7\u00a7\u00a07-14 and \u00a7\u00a7 109-110, 3 March 2020). All of the applicants were sitting as judges or prosecutors at different types and\/or levels of court, or appointed as trainee judges, at the material time.<\/p>\n

2. On 16 July 2016 the Ankara chief public prosecutor\u2019s office initiated a criminal investigation into, inter alios, the suspected members of FET\u00d6\/PDY within the judiciary. Subsequently, on various dates, the High Council of Judges and Prosecutors (Hakimler ve Savc\u0131lar Y\u00fcksek Kurulu \u2013 \u201cthe HSYK\u201d) decided to suspend thousands of judges and prosecutors \u2013 including some of the applicants \u2013 from their duties, on the grounds that there was strong suspicion that they were members of the terrorist organisation that had instigated the attempted coup (further details regarding the relevant HSYK decision may be found in Ba\u015f, ibid., \u00a7\u00a7 15-21, and Turan and Others v.\u00a0Turkey, nos. 75805\/16 and 426 others, \u00a7\u00a7 13-15, 23 November 2021). In the HSYK\u2019s suspension decision dated 16 July 2016, reference was made to disciplinary proceedings initiated, amongst other persons, against four of the applicants (namely, applications nos. 31681\/17, 47014\/17, 47407\/18 and\u00a059568\/18) in 2015 on account of their failure to take up their duties allegedly for health reasons following an order for their reassignment, which the HSYK considered to be an organisational activity in protest of the reassignments.<\/p>\n

3. On 17 July 2016 the 1st Presidency Board of the Court of Cassation similarly issued a decision revoking the existing authorities of the members of the Court of Cassation against whom action had been taken by the Ankara chief public prosecutor\u2019s office, including some of the applicants (see Turan and Others, cited above, \u00a7 16).<\/p>\n

4. On various dates, the applicants were arrested and placed in pre-trial detention, mainly on suspicion of membership of the FET\u00d6\/PDY, an offence punishable under Article 314 of the Criminal Code (see Ba\u015f, cited above, \u00a7\u00a058). The detention orders relied principally on the fact that the applicants had been suspended from their duties as judges or prosecutors, or their authorities revoked, on grounds of their membership of the organisation that had instigated the attempted coup. It further appears that in respect of some applicants, the use of the ByLock messaging system was relied on as evidence. The challenges brought by the applicants against their detentions, including by reason of the alleged lack of reasonable suspicion of having committed an offence, were dismissed, including by the Constitutional Court (see, mutatis mutandis, Turan and Others, cited above, \u00a7\u00a7 22-27).<\/p>\n

5. According to the latest information provided by the parties, most of the applicants were convicted of membership of a terrorist organisation by the first instance courts, and a few were acquitted. It appears that, for the most part, the appeal proceedings are still pending.<\/p>\n

THE COURT\u2019S ASSESSMENT<\/strong><\/p>\n

I. JOINDER OF THE APPLICATIONS<\/strong><\/p>\n

6. 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

II. ALLEGED VIOLATION OF ARTICLE\u00a05 \u00a7 1 OF THE CONVENTION<\/strong><\/p>\n

7. The applicants complained that there had been no specific evidence giving rise to a reasonable suspicion, within the meaning of Article 5 \u00a7\u00a01\u00a0(c) of the Convention, that they had committed a criminal offence necessitating pre-trial detention.<\/p>\n

8. The Government urged the Court to declare this complaint inadmissible in respect of the applicants who had not made use of the compensatory remedy under Article 141 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, or whose compensation claims were still pending. They further asked the Court to declare the applications inadmissible for abuse of the right of application to the extent that the applicants had not informed the Court of the developments in their cases following the lodging of their applications.<\/p>\n

9. The Court notes that similar objections have already been dismissed in other cases against Turkey (see, for instance, Ba\u015f, cited above, \u00a7\u00a7\u00a0118-121, and Turan and Others, cited above, \u00a7\u00a7 57-64), and sees no reason to depart from those findings in the present case. The Court therefore considers that this complaint is not manifestly ill-founded within the meaning of Article\u00a035 \u00a7\u00a03\u00a0(a) of the Convention or inadmissible on any other grounds. It must therefore be declared admissible.<\/p>\n

10. The Court notes from the information in the case files that the applicants\u2019 initial pre-trial detention was based solely on the decisions taken by the HSYK or the 1st Presidency Board of the Court of Cassation for their suspension from office or the revocation of their authorities, and\/or on information indicating their use of the ByLock messaging system. The Court has already found that neither of these grounds relied on by the domestic courts in ordering the applicants\u2019 pre-trial detention was of a nature to constitute \u201creasonable suspicion\u201d within the meaning of Article 5 \u00a7 1 (c) in respect of the offence attributed to them. The Court refers in this connection to its findings in the judgment of Ba\u015f (cited above, \u00a7\u00a7 170-195) in respect of the HSYK decision, which can be applied mutatis mutandis to the decision of the 1st Presidency Board of the Court of Cassation noted in paragraph 3 above by reason of its essentially similar object and content, as well as to the findings in Akg\u00fcn v. Turkey (no. 19699\/18, \u00a7\u00a7 151-185, 20 July 2021) regarding the use of the ByLock messaging system. Moreover, as regards the disciplinary investigation in respect of the four applicants mentioned in the HSYK decision (see paragraph 2 above), the Government have not provided arguments to support the conclusion that the act underlying the investigation in question could as such suggest membership of FET\u00d6\/PDY and that it could have thereby formed the basis for the suspicion giving rise to the order for the relevant applicants\u2019 detention (see, mutatis mutandis, Ba\u015f, cited above, \u00a7\u00a0188).<\/p>\n

11. In the absence of any other information or evidence available at the time of the applicants\u2019 initial pre-trial detention that would satisfy an objective observer that they may have committed the offence attributed to them, the Court sees no reason to depart from its findings in the aforementioned cases and finds that there has been a violation of Article\u00a05 \u00a7\u00a01. The Court moreover considers that while the applicants were detained a short time after the coup attempt \u2013 that is, the event that prompted the declaration of the state of emergency and the notice of derogation by Turkey\u00a0\u2013\u00a0, which is undoubtedly a contextual factor that should be fully taken into account in interpreting and applying Article 5 of the Convention in the present case, the measure at issue cannot be said to have been strictly required by the exigencies of the situation (see, Ba\u015f, cited above, \u00a7\u00a7 115-116 and \u00a7\u00a7\u00a0196-201).<\/p>\n

III. OTHER COMPLAINTS<\/strong><\/p>\n

12. As regards any remaining complaints under Article\u00a05 \u00a7\u00a7\u00a01, 3, 4 and\u00a05, the Court decides not to examine them, in view of its findings under Article\u00a05 \u00a7\u00a01 above and its considerations in the case of Turan and Others (cited above, \u00a7\u00a098).<\/p>\n

APPLICATION OF ARTICLE 41 OF THE CONVENTION<\/strong><\/p>\n

13. The applicants requested compensation in varying amounts in respect of non\u2011pecuniary damage. Most of the applicants also claimed pecuniary damage, corresponding mainly to their loss of earnings resulting from their dismissal, as well as the legal costs and expenses incurred before the domestic courts and the Court.<\/p>\n

14. The Government contested the applicants\u2019 claims as being unsubstantiated and excessive.<\/p>\n

15. For the reasons put forth in Turan and Others (cited above, \u00a7\u00a7\u00a0102-107), the Court rejects any claims for pecuniary damage and awards each of the applicants a lump sum of 5,000 euros (EUR), covering non-pecuniary damage and costs and expenses, plus any tax that may be chargeable on that amount.<\/p>\n

FOR THESE REASONS, THE COURT, UNANIMOUSLY,<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Decides to join the applications;<\/p>\n

2. Declares the complaint under Article 5 \u00a7 1 of the Convention, concerning the alleged lack of reasonable suspicion, at the time of the applicants\u2019 initial pre-trial detention, that they had committed an offence, admissible;<\/p>\n

3. Holds that there has been a violation of Article 5 \u00a7 1 of the Convention on account of the lack of reasonable suspicion, at the time of the applicants\u2019 initial pre-trial detention, that they had committed an offence;<\/p>\n

4. Holds that there is no need to examine the admissibility and merits of the applicants\u2019 remaining complaints under Article 5 of the Convention;<\/p>\n

5. Holds<\/p>\n

(a) that the respondent State is to pay each of the applicants, within three months, EUR 5,000 (five thousand euros) in respect of non-pecuniary damage and costs and expenses, plus any tax that may be chargeable on these amounts, which are to be converted into the currency of the respondent State at the rate applicable at the date of settlement;<\/p>\n

(b) that from the expiry of the above-mentioned three months until settlement simple interest shall be payable on the above amount at a rate equal to the marginal lending rate of the European Central Bank during the default period plus three percentage points;<\/p>\n

6. Dismisses the remainder of the applicants\u2019 claims for just satisfaction.<\/p>\n
