Relinquishment
04/07/24
The Chamber to which the case H.M.M. and Others v. Latvia had been allocated has relinquished jurisdiction in favour of the Grand Chamber.
The case concerns alleged “pushbacks” in the vicinity of the Latvian‑Belarusian border starting from 10 August 2021.
There are currently over 30 cases pending before the Court against Lithuania, Latvia and Poland concerning the situation at the Belarusian borders from spring 2021 to summer 2023.
