Gasparyan v. Armenia (No. 2) (application no. 22571/05)
The applicant, Maksim Gasparyan, is an Armenian national who was born
in 1948 and lives in Yerevan (Armenia). The case concerns Mr
Gasparyan’s allegation that in May 2004 he was arrested in order to
prevent him from taking part in demonstrations organised in
Yerevan. Relying on Article 5 (right to liberty and security) and
Article 6 §§ 1 and 3 (right to a fair trial) of the European
Convention on Human Rights, he complains about the unlawfulness of his
detention and the unfairness of the ensuing expedited administrative
proceedings brought against him for disturbing public order. The case
also concerns the fact that he had no right to contest the decision
against him, in breach of Article 2 of Protocol No. 7 (right to appeal
in criminal matters) to the Convention.
