EIT katsoi tuomiossaan, että Turkin viranomaiset olivat loukanneet EIS 2 artiklaa (oikeus elämään), kun se ei ollut estänyt miehen suorittamaa vaimonsa murhaa, vaikka viranomaiset olivat tietoisia vakavasta väkivallasta ja tappouhkauksista.

EIT:n lehdistötiedotteesta:

In [a] Chamber judgment in the case of Civek v. Turkey (application no. 55354/11) the European Court of Human Rights held, unanimously, that there had been:

a violation of Article 2 (right to life) of the European Convention on Human Rights.

The case concerned the murder of the applicants’ mother, Selma Civek, by their father.

The Court found, in particular, that even though the Turkish authorities had been informed of the genuine and serious threat to Ms Civek’s life and despite her continued complaints of threats and harassment, they had failed to take the measures reasonably available to them in order to prevent her being murdered by her husband.
