The Russian Government (“the Government”) were represented by Mr   G. Matyushkin, the Representative of the Russian Federation at the European Court of Human Rights. The applicant complained under Article 3 of the Convention about the conditions of detention in a correctional facility. The application was communicated to the Government. By a letter dated 30   October 2015 the Government informed the Court that they proposed to make a declaration with a view to resolving the issues raised by the application. They acknowledged a violation of the applicant’s rights guaranteed by Article 3 of the Convention. They undertook to pay the applicant 2,175   euros to cover any pecuniary and non-pecuniary damage as well as costs and expenses, which would be converted into Russian roubles at the rate applicable on the date of payment, and would be free of any taxes that may be applicable. The payment would be effected within a period of three months from the date of notification of the decision taken by the Court. In the event of failure to pay within that period, the Government undertook to pay simple interest on it, from expiry of that period until settlement, at a rate equal to the marginal lending rate of the European Central Bank during the default period plus three percentage points. The payment would constitute the final resolution of the case. They further requested the Court to strike out the application. On 14 January 2016 the applicant informed the Court that he agreed to the terms of the Government’s declaration. THE LAW The Court finds that following the applicant’s express agreement to the terms of the declaration made by the Government the case should be treated as a friendly settlement between the parties. It therefore takes note of the friendly settlement reached between the parties. It is satisfied that the settlement is based on respect for human rights as defined in the Convention and its Protocols and finds no reasons to justify a continued examination of the application. In view of the above, it is appropriate to strike the case out of the list. For these reasons, the Court, unanimously, Decides to strike the application out of its list of cases in accordance with Article 39 of the Convention.   Done in English and notified in writing on 21 April 2016.
