    Resolution CM/ResDH(2011)2471

    Execution of the judgment of the European Court of Human Rights

    Nicuţ-Tănăsescu against Romania


    (Application No. 25842/03, judgment of 6 July 2010, final on 6 October 2010)



    The Committee of Ministers, under the terms of Article 46, paragraph 2, of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, which provides that the Committee supervises the execution of final judgments of the European Court of Human Rights (hereinafter “the Convention” and “the Court”);


    Having regard to the judgment transmitted by the Court to the Committee once it had become final;


    Recalling that the violation of the Convention found by the Court in this case concerns the breach of the applicant’s right to be brought promptly before a judge (violation of article 5, paragraph 3) (see details in Appendix);


    Having invited the government of the respondent state to inform the Committee of the measures taken to comply with its obligation under Article 46, paragraph 1, of the Convention to abide by the judgment;


    Having examined the information provided by the government in accordance with the Committee’s Rules for the application of Article 46, paragraph 2, of the Convention;


    Having satisfied itself that, within the time-limit set, the respondent state paid the applicant the just satisfaction provided in the judgment (see details in Appendix),


    Recalling that a finding of violations by the Court requires, over and above the payment of just satisfaction awarded by the Court in its judgments, the adoption by the respondent state, where appropriate:

    - of individual measures to put an end to the violations and erase their consequences so as to achieve as far as possible restitutio in integrum; and


    - of general measures preventing similar violations;



    DECLARES, having examined the measures taken by the respondent state (see Appendix), that it has exercised its functions under Article 46, paragraph 2, of the Convention in this case and


    DECIDES to close the examination of this case.
