RUSSIA<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>(Applications nos. 23169\/18 and 23 others \u2013 see appended list)<\/em><br \/>\nJUDGMENT<br \/>\nSTRASBOURG<br \/>\n9 November 2023<\/p>\n<p>This judgment is final but it may be subject to editorial revision.<\/p>\n<p><strong>In the case of Varachenkov and Others v. Russia,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The European Court of Human Rights (Third Section), sitting as a Committee composed of:<br \/>\nPeeter Roosma, President,<br \/>\nIoannis Ktistakis,<br \/>\nAndreas Z\u00fcnd, judges,<br \/>\nand Viktoriya Maradudina, Acting Deputy Section Registrar,<\/p>\n<p>Having deliberated in private on 19 October 2023,<\/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 Russia 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 Russian 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 disproportionate measures taken against them as organisers or participants of public assemblies. They also raised other complaints under the provisions of the Convention.<\/p>\n<p><strong>THE LAW<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>I. JOINDER OF THE APPLICATIONS<\/strong><\/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><strong>II. Jurisdiction<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>6. The Court observes that the facts giving rise to the alleged violations of the Convention occurred prior to 16 September 2022, the date on which the Russian Federation ceased to be a party to the Convention. The Court therefore decides that it has jurisdiction to examine the present applications (see Fedotova and Others v. Russia [GC], nos. 40792\/10 and 2 others, \u00a7\u00a7\u00a068\u201173, 17 January 2023).<\/p>\n<p><strong>III. ALLEGED VIOLATION OF ARTICLE\u00a011 OF THE CONVENTION<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>7. The applicants complained principally of disproportionate measures taken against them as organisers and participants of public assemblies, namely the dispersal of these assemblies, as well as their arrest followed by their conviction for administrative offences. They relied, expressly or in substance, on Article 11 of the Convention. Some applicants also invoked Article\u00a010; however, these complaints fall to be examined under Article\u00a011 of the Convention.<\/p>\n<p>8. The Court refers to the principles established in its case-law regarding freedom of assembly (see Kudrevi\u010dius and Others v. Lithuania [GC], no.\u00a037553\/05, ECHR 2015, with further references) and proportionality of interference with it (see Oya Ataman v. Turkey, no. 74552\/01, ECHR\u00a02006\u2011XIV, and Hyde Park and Others v. Moldova, no. 33482\/06, 31\u00a0March 2009).<\/p>\n<p>9. In the leading cases of Frumkin v. Russia, no. 74568\/12, ECHR 2016 (extracts), Navalnyy and Yashin v. Russia, no. 76204\/11, 4 December 2014, and Kasparov and Others v. Russia, no. 21613\/07, 3 October 2013, the Court already found a violation in respect of issues similar to those in the present case.<\/p>\n<p>10. Having examined all the material submitted to it, the Court has not found any fact or argument capable of persuading it to reach a different conclusion as to the admissibility and merits of these complaints. Having regard to its case-law on the subject, the Court considers that in the instant case the interferences with the applicants\u2019 freedom of assembly were not \u201cnecessary in a democratic society\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>11. These complaints are therefore admissible and disclose a breach of Article 11 of the Convention.<\/p>\n<p><strong>IV. OTHER ALLEGED VIOLATIONS UNDER WELL-ESTABLISHED CASE-LAW<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>12. The applicants submitted other complaints which also raised issues under the Convention, given the relevant well-established case-law of the Court (see appended table). These complaints are not manifestly ill-founded within the meaning of Article\u00a035\u00a0\u00a7\u00a03\u00a0(a) of the Convention, nor are they inadmissible on any other ground. Accordingly, they must be declared admissible.<\/p>\n<p>13. Having examined all the material before it, the Court concludes that they also disclose violations of the Convention in the light of its findings in in Lashmankin and Others v.\u00a0Russia, nos.\u00a057818\/09 and 14 others, \u00a7 489, 7\u00a0February 2017, Butkevich v. Russia, no.\u00a05865\/07, \u00a7\u00a7\u00a063-65, 13 February 2018, Tsvetkova and Others v. Russia, nos.\u00a054381\/08 and 5 others, \u00a7\u00a7 115\u201131, 10 April 2018, and Korneyeva v.\u00a0Russia, no.\u00a072051\/17, \u00a7\u00a7 34-36, 8\u00a0October 2019, as to various aspects of unlawful deprivation of liberty of organisers or participants of public assemblies; Dirdizov v. Russia, no. 41461\/10, \u00a7\u00a7\u00a0108\u201111, 27 November 2012, concerning excessive length of pretrial detention; Idalov v. Russia, [GC], no. 5826\/03, \u00a7\u00a7 154-58, 22 May 2012, about delays in examination of the complaints against detention orders; Karelin v. Russia, no. 926\/08, \u00a7\u00a7 58-85, 20 September 2016, concerning the absence of a prosecuting party in the proceedings under the Code of Administrative Offences (the CAO); Novikova and Others v. Russia, nos.\u00a025501\/07 and 4 others, \u00a7\u00a7 106-225, 26 April 2016, related to disproportionate measures taken by the authorities against participants of solo manifestations; Elvira Dmitriyeva v. Russia, nos. 60921\/17 and 7202\/18, \u00a7\u00a7\u00a077-90, 30 April 2019, concerning administrative convictions for making calls to participate in public events; Lashmankin and Others, cited above, \u00a7\u00a0359, concerning restrictions on location, time or manner of conduct of public events; Martynyuk v.\u00a0Russia, no.\u00a013764\/15, \u00a7\u00a7 38-42, 8\u00a0October 2019, and Tsvetkova and Others, cited above, \u00a7\u00a7 178-88, relating to the lack of suspensive effect of an appeal against the sentence of administrative detention; Korneyeva, cited above, \u00a7\u00a7 62-65, as to the right of the organisers or participants of public assemblies not to be tried and punished twice for the same offence.<\/p>\n<p><strong>V. REMAINING COMPLAINTS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>14. Some applicants raised further additional complaints under Article 6 of the Convention concerning other aspects of fairness of the administrative\u2011offence proceedings. In view of the findings in paragraphs above, the Court considers that there is no need to deal separately with these remaining complaints.<\/p>\n<p><strong>VI. APPLICATION OF ARTICLE 41 OF THE CONVENTION<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>15. Regard being had to the documents in its possession and to its case\u2011law (see in particular Navalnyy and Others v. Russia [Committee], nos.\u00a025809\/17 and 14 others, \u00a7\u00a022, 4\u00a0October 2022), the Court finds it reasonable to award the sums indicated in the appended table.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FOR THESE REASONS, THE COURT, UNANIMOUSLY,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1.

Declares the complaints under Article 11 of the Convention and the other complaints under the well-established case-law of the Court, as set out in the appended table, admissible, and finds that there is no need to examine separately the remaining complaints under Article 6 of the Convention;<\/p>\n<p>4. Holds that there has been a breach of Article\u00a011 of the Convention;<\/p>\n<p>5. Holds that there has been a violation of the Convention and the Protocols thereto as regards the other complaints raised under the well-established case-law of the Court (see appended table);<\/p>\n<p>6. 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 9 November 2023, pursuant to Rule\u00a077\u00a0\u00a7\u00a7\u00a02 and\u00a03 of the Rules of Court.<\/p>\n<p>Viktoriya Maradudina \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Peeter Roosma<br \/>\nActing Deputy Registrar \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 President<\/p>\n<p>__________<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>APPENDIX<\/strong><br \/>\nList of applications raising complaints under Article 11 of the Convention<br \/>\n(disproportionate measures against organisers and participants of public assemblies)<\/p>\n<table width=\"1049\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"47\"><strong>No.<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"83\"><strong>Application no.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Date of introduction<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Applicant\u2019s name<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Year of birth<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"91\"><strong>Representative\u2019s name and location<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"84\"><strong>Name of the public event<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Location<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Date<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"102\"><strong>Administrative charges<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"108\"><strong>Penalty (relevant article of the CAO, if relevant)<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"109\"><strong>Final domestic decision<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Court Name<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Date<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"226\"><strong>Other complaints under well-established case\u2011law<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"95\"><strong>Amount awarded for pecuniary and non\u2011pecuniary damage and costs and expenses per applicant<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>(in euros)<a href=\"#_edn1\" name=\"_ednref1\">[i]<\/a><\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"47\">1.<\/td>\n<td width=\"83\">23169\/18<\/p>\n<p>30\/04\/2018<\/td>\n<td><strong>Vasiliy Andreyevich VARACHENKOV<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1995<\/p>\n<p><strong>Aleksandr Maksimovich RYABUSHKIN<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1992<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dmitriy Romanovich GRUZDEV<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1992<\/td>\n<td width=\"91\">Nikolay Sergeyevich Zboroshenko<\/p>\n<p>Mytishchi<\/td>\n<td width=\"84\">Rally against corruption<\/p>\n<p>Moscow<\/p>\n<p>05\/11\/2017<\/td>\n<td width=\"102\">article 19.3 \u00a7 1 of CAO,<\/p>\n<p>article\u00a020.2 \u00a7 6.1 of CAO<\/td>\n<td width=\"108\">Mr\u00a0Varachenkov: administrative detention of 15\u00a0days (art. 19.3 \u00a7 1) and fine of RUB\u00a015,000 (art. 20.2. 6 \u00a7 1)<\/p>\n<p>Mr Ryabushkin: administrative detention of 15 days (art. 19.3 \u00a7 1) and fine of RUB\u00a010,000 (art. 20.2. 6 \u00a7 1)<\/p>\n<p>Mr Gruzdev: fine of RUB 10,000<\/p>\n<p>(art. 20.2. 6 \u00a7 1)<\/td>\n<td width=\"109\">Moscow City Court:<\/p>\n<p>08\/11\/2017 and 28\/03\/2018 (Mr\u00a0Varachenkov),<\/p>\n<p>14\/11\/2017 and 14\/03\/2018 (Mr\u00a0Ryabushkin),<\/p>\n<p>28\/03\/2018<\/p>\n<p>(Mr\u00a0Gruzdev)<\/td>\n<td width=\"226\">Art. 5 (1) \u2013 unlawful deprivation of liberty: escorting to the police station for the purpose of drawing up a record of administrative offence;
