Prominent political activists for the opposition, the applicants complain in particular about the unfairness of criminal proceedings brought against them for their role in clashes between demonstrators and the police on 15 and 16 October 2003 when Isar Gambar, the main opposition candidate, lost the presidential elections. Convicted in October 2004 of organising public disorder and acts of violence against State officials and sentenced to between four-and-a-half and five years imprisonment, they were released six months later by way of presidential pardon. They rely on Article 6 1, 2 and 3 (b), (c) and (d) (right to a fair trial/presumption of innocence/right to adequate time and facilities for preparation of defence/right to legal assistance of own choosing/right to obtain attendance and examination of witnesses) of the European Convention on Human Rights. Mr Huseyn, Mr Abbasov and Mr Hajili also complain under Article 11 (freedom of assembly and association) that the main motivation behind their criminal conviction was that they were leaders of the opposition who had called for the public to protest against the results of the presidential election. Lastly, relying on Article 3 (prohibition of inhuman or degrading treatment), Mr Huseyn also alleges that he was ill-treated while in police custody. Orujov v. Azerbaijan (no. 4508/06) The applicant, Nadir Oruj oğlu Orujov, is an Azerbaijani national who was born in 1957 and lives in Baku. The case concerns Mr Orujov s disqualification from running as a candidate for the 2005 parliamentary elections on the ground that he had allegedly attempted to influence voters by funding repair works on public facilities for children and the elderly.

The courts refused to examine whether that decision had a sound factual basis. Arrested and detained in October 2006, he was released in July 2009 and has not been deported. All the applicants complain that Mr M. s deportation to Afghanistan was arbitrary, would
2 separate their family and would expose him to a high risk of inhuman treatment.

In particular, the applicant company alleges that the courts decision against its predecessor was arbitrary and that the damages awarded (12,250 euros) were excessive.
