650 applications have been submitted to the European Court of Human
Rights by Armenians since Armenia’s joining the Council of Europe in
2001. The Committee of the Court qualified 146 of the applications
unacceptable.

Armenian Judge at the European Court of Human Rights Alvina Gyulumyan
told "Armenpress" that some of the plaintiffs were prisoners
complaining of too many prisoners in prison cells. Many of the
applications have to do with inhumane and humiliating attitude and
unfair trial. Applications connected with freedom of conscience were
submitted by religious minorities.
