Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the complainant had standing as a victim to challenge the refusal to open proceedings
Decisione estratta
He had standing based on Article 3 ECHR because the alleged ill-treatment was defensibly asserted and required an effective investigation; broader standing under OHG was not established.
Motivazione estratta
The injuries were more than trivial, the allegation was plausible, and Articles 3 and 13 ECHR confer a procedural right to an effective, thorough inquiry and access to it.
