SUBJECT MATTER OF THE CASE
The application concerns the allegedly unlawful interception of the applicant’s telephone communications within the framework of the criminal proceedings against her husband. It appears from the applicant’s submissions and from the materials of the case that, contrary to the domestic law, her telephone communications were intercepted without her having any quality in the criminal proceedings.

She further alleges under Article 13 of the Convention that she did not have an effective remedy against the aforementioned unlawful interference with her right to respect for private life.
