Item 1 - Abdurrahman Çelikbilek v Turkey, No. 27693/95

2pp

Summary/working notes (presumably written by Bill Bowring) following the 22 June 1999 admission of the application of Abdurrahman Çelikbilek by the European Court of Human Rights, followed by the author's questions raised in light of the admission. The author notes that the Court joined to the merits of the application the question concerning the effectiveness of the Turkish criminal investigation, and that Turkey has been asked to submit the full investigation casefile. The author asks the Kurdish Human Rights Project for essential details on the case, such as obtaining a further statement from Abdurrahman Çelikbilek regarding the incident and potential witnesses, and a statement from the deceased's widow if possible (it was noted in later observations submitted by the applicant that the widow was not able to be located).
