Published judgment in the İsmail Ertak case (A44/43/1/31). On 9 May 2000, the European Court of Human Rights unanimously ruled that there had been a violation of Article 2 of the Convention on account of the death of the applicant's son at the hands of agents of the State and the lack of an adequate and effective investigation into the circumstances surrounding his disappearance. The Government were ordered to pay İsmail Ertak £15,000 sterling in pecuniary damages and £20,000 sterling in non-pecuniary damages to be held for Mehmet Ertak’s widow and children, £2,500 sterling in non-pecuniary damages for İsmail Ertak himself, and £12,000 sterling (less 14,660.35 French francs received in legal aid) in costs and expenses.
