In particular, on 6 July 2015, between 2 and 9 a.m., before the police was informed and arrived, private security employees locked the applicant in a food truck at a peach field for suspicion of stealing peaches. The authorities refused to investigate the applicant’s complaints about ill ‑ treatment considering the applicant’s criminal complaint to be a defence strategy in a criminal case opened against him. Relying on Article 3 of the Convention, the applicant complained that he was provided with no food, water or warm clothes while being locked in a food truck and that the investigation into his ill-treatment was ineffective.     QUESTION TO THE PARTIES Do the facts of the case disclose a violation of Article 3 of the Convention? In particular, did the authorities carry out an effective investigation into the applicant’s complaint that he had been ill-treated by private individuals (see Denis Vasilyev v. Russia, no. 32704/04, §§ 98-100, 17 December 2009; Biser Kostov v.   Bulgaria, no. 32662/06, §§ 75-79, 10   January 2012; and Aleksandr Nikonenko v. Ukraine, no. 54755/08, §§   43-44, 14 November 2013)?
