That decision was upheld by the State prosecutor.

Mr Risti was arrested in 2017 and taken to a police station following his flight from officers. He admitted swallowing a plastic bag containing drugs while resisting arrest. The case concerns his being taken to the Military Medical Academy in Belgrade, where he was allegedly shackled and monitored, and given a laxative (allegedly he was not told what exactly the drug was). As a result, a plastic bag containing amphetamine and caffeine powder was retrieved. He spent a total of 90 hours in hospital. Relying on Articles 3 (prohibition of inhuman and degrading treatment), 5 (right to liberty and security) and 13 (right to an effective remedy), Mr Risti complains, in particular, that his treatment in hospital was degrading, and that his effective detention there was unlawful and arbitrary.
