European Court to deliver judgment on case of Derenik Mkrtchyan and Gayane Mkrtchyan v. Armenia on Tuesday
The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) will deliver a judgment on the case of Derenik Mkrtchyan and Gayane Mkrtchyan v. Armenia (application no. 69736/12) on Tuesday, 30 November, the press service of the court told Panorama.am on Monday.
The applicants, Derenik G. Mkrtchyan and Gayane Mkrtchyan, are Armenian nationals who were born in 1948 and 1976 respectively and live in Alapars (Armenia).
The case concerns death of Derenik G., the applicants’ grandson and son respectively, at the age of ten in 2010 following a fight in the classroom in his school. It also concerns the subsequent investigation and legal proceedings.
Relying on Article 2 (right to life) and Article 13 (right to an effective remedy) of the European Convention on Human Rights, the applicants claim, in particular, that the boy’s death was a result of a failure by the school authorities to protect him while under their control and that the subsequent investigation was ineffective.
See the detailed statement of the facts here.
