The applicant, Mr Andrei Tali, is an Estonian national, who was born in 1977. He is serving a life sentence for murder in Viru Prison in J � hvi.
The facts of the case, as submitted by the applicantand as they appear from the documents on file, may be summarised as follows.
On 3 July 2009 the applicant was informed by prison guard KA that he would be transferred to a punishment cell in the evening in order to serve a disciplinary punishment. The applicant was dissatisfied as he had been made to understand that he did not have to serve the punishment in question. He said that he would not gather his belongings until he could clarify the situation with a security officer. KA told him that in case he objected to going to the punishment cell, he would be taken there by force. The applicant replied that he would defend him in case of unlawful attack.
At 5.45 p.m. KA together with two further guards, MN and JT came to the applicant�s cell. KA had a plastic shield and MN and JT wore flack jackets and helmets. KA moved towards the applicant keeping the shield in front of him. MN and JT followed him.
According to the prison guards, the applicant had attempted to hit them and had had a scuffle with KA in the course of which the latter sustained minor injuries. They denied having kicked or strangled the applicant and submitted that he had subsequently threatened to kill them one by one.
