The European Court of Human Rights (Fourth Section), sitting on 29 November 2018 as a Committee composed of:
Georges Ravarani, President,
Marko Bošnjak,
Péter Paczolay, judges,
and Liv Tigerstedt, Acting Deputy Section Registrar,
Having regard to the above application lodged on 10 February 2016,
Having deliberated, decides as follows:
FACTS AND PROCEDURE
The applicant, Mr Geaninii-Iulius Dani, was born in 1989.
The applicant’s complaints under Article 3 of the Convention concerning the inadequate conditions of detention were communicated to the Romanian Government (“the Government”), who submitted observations on the admissibility and merits.
By letter dated 2 June 2017, the applicant was notified at the Botoșani Prison about the Government’s submissions. The letter was returned to the Court with mention “released”.
On 27 November 2017 the applicant was requested to submit by 2 January 2018 a copy of his release document. This letter was sent to the applicant’s home address and has not returned to the Court. However, no response has been received.
By letter dated 8 March 2018, sent by registered post, the applicant was notified a copy of the letter of 27 November 2017 and was requested to submit the information referred to in that letter by 29 March 2018. The letter was returned to the Court with mentions “unclaimed” and “correspondent moved abroad for a long period of time”.
The applicant has not informed the Court about any change in his correspondence address or about being released from penitentiary. He has not to date resumed his correspondence with the Court.
THE LAW
In the light of the foregoing, the Court concludes that the applicant may be regarded as no longer wishing to pursue the application (Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention). Furthermore, in accordance with Article 37 § 1 in fine, the Court finds no special circumstances regarding respect for human rights as defined in the Convention and the Protocols thereto which require the continued examination of the application.
Accordingly, the case should be struck out of the list.
For these reasons, the Court, unanimously,
Decides to strike the application out of its list of cases.
Done in English and notified in writing on 20 December 2018.
