Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the detention conditions violated Article 3 ECHR and entitled the applicant to compensation.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The police-cell conditions were incompatible with Article 3 ECHR and were sufficiently serious even over a short period.
Extrahierte Begründung
A windowless cell with light on 24 hours a day and only brief daily exercise caused distress and humiliation beyond the inevitable suffering of detention. A short duration does not exclude an Article 3 violation.
