The European Court of Human Rights will hear another complaint against the Republic of Armenia on December 20.

The applicant Gaspar Poghosyan, 30, is a citizen of Yerevan.
His case concerns a number of complaints about his detention following his arrest in April 2007 on fraud and burglary charges. He notably alleges that he was not immediately brought before a judge, that part of his ensuing pre-trial detention -between 13 June and 2 July 2007 - was unlawful and that one of his appeals against his detention was not examined. He relies on Article 5 §§ 1, 3 and 4 (right to liberty and security) of the European Convention on Human Rights.
