Initial enquiries into his allegations were carried out in 2000,   and criminal proceedings were instituted in 2002. The investigation that followed was ultimately   discontinued in 2010 because of the expiry of the limitation period.   The criminal case against Mr Badalyan was eventually dropped for lack of evidence.   The applicant complains that the conduct of the criminal proceedings concerning his allegations of   ill-treatment entailed numerous violations of his rights, including under Article 6 (right to a fair trial)   of the European Convention on Human Rights.   Violation of Article 3 (investigation)   Just satisfaction:   non-pecuniary damage: 10,000 euros (EUR)   costs and expenses: EUR 3,500   Khokhlov v.

During the three-month period following a Chamber   judgment’s delivery, any party may request that the case be referred to the Grand Chamber of the Court. If such a request is made, a   panel of five judges considers whether the case deserves further examination. In that event, the Grand Chamber will hear the case and   deliver a final judgment. If the referral request is refused, the Chamber judgment will become final on that day. Under Article 28 of the   Convention, judgments delivered by a Committee are final.   Once a judgment becomes final, it is transmitted to the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe for supervision of its execution.   Further information about the execution process can be found here: www.coe.int/t/dghl/monitoring/execution   and placed in detention.
