SABANCHIYEVA, MASKHADOVA, AND OTHERS: THE STRATEGIC CHOICE Of THE EUROPEAN COURT OF HUMAN RIGHTS
The author analyses two recent judgments of the European Court of Human Rights concerning Russia's special regime of burial of terrorists: Sabanchiyeva and Others v. Russia and Maskhadova and Others v. Russia. He argues that the conclusions which the Court arrived at were a result of a particular strategic choice and that they were methodologically debatable, at least.
