Upon his release on 28 February 2016, the applicant was put in administrative detention with a view to deportation in Erzurum, İzmir and Aydın Foreigners’ Removal Centres, respectively. On 10 February 2017 the applicant was deported to Iran. The application concerns the applicant’s complaints regarding the material conditions of detention at the above-mentioned removal centres pending the expulsion proceedings. It further concerns the alleged unlawfulness of the applicant’s deprivation of liberty and the lack of an effective remedy to challenge the lawfulness of his detention at the Aydın Foreigners’ Removal Centre.

Turkey , no. 4633/15, §§ 99-117, 17   October 2019)?   Regarding the applicant’s administrative detention at the Aydın Foreigners’ Removal Centre:   3.     Did the applicant’s detention comply with the requirements of Article   5   § 1 of the Convention (see, mutatis mutandis , A. and Others v.   the United Kingdom [GC], no. 3455/05, § 164, ECHR 2009, and the cases cited therein)?   4.     Did the applicant have at his disposal a remedy by which he could challenge the lawfulness of his deprivation of liberty, as required by Article   5   §   4 of the Convention (see, for example, A.M. v. France , no.   56324/13,   §§   40-41, 12 July 2016, and G.B. and Others v. Turkey , no.   4633/15, §§ 163-69, 17 October 2019)?   The Government are invited to submit information and supporting documents on the conditions of detention at the Erzurum, İzmir and Aydın Foreigners’ Removal Centres, in particular as relevant to the applicant’s following allegations: (i) the solitary confinement of the applicant for a prolonged duration, (ii) the restrictions imposed on exercise and recreational activities, (iii) the conditions in which the applicant was transferred between the above-mentioned removal centres and (iv) the failure to provide the applicant with the medical care necessary for his health condition during his detention.   The Government are also invited to submit all documents relating to the applicant’s detention.   The parties are requested to submit, within the same time-limit, reports or information documents regarding the conditions of detention at the Erzurum, İzmir and Aydın Foreigners’ Removal Centres from reliable sources.
