- The applicant, an Iranian national, suffered arrest, detention and torture due to his opposition to the Iranian regime. Once released, the applicant entered Greece and submitted an asylum application, which Greek authorities failed to register. The prosecutor ordered his expulsion back to Iran and police detained him temporarily. However, authorities later transferred the applicant first to the Venna Detention Centre and then to the Soufli Police and Border Guard Detention Station. The applicant claims that before he was transferred to Soufli, police officers forced him to sign an unknown document with the false promise of release. He later found out the document he signed stated a desire to not claim asylum. Soon after, the applicant submitted a new asylum application and objected to his detention. Greek officials ultimately denied his asylum request and ordered his expulsion. The applicant left Greece and received refugee status in Sweden. The applicant experienced detention during the same period as other cases involving the facilities at Venna and Soufli where the Court found a violation of Article 3. The Court also considered the lack of an effective remedy against the conditions of detention and ineffective judicial review. As a result, the Court ruled that there was a violation of Article 3, Article 3 in conjunction with Article 13 and Article 5(4), but no violation of Article 5(1) and Article 5(2).
