In today's Chamber judgment 1 in the case of Yordanovi v. Bulgaria (application no. 11157/11, [2020] ECHR 602 French Text) the European Court of Human Rights held, by six votes to one, that there had been:
a violation of Article 11 (freedom of assembly and association) of the European Convention on Human Rights .
The case concerned the complaint by the two applicants about criminal proceedings brought against them for attempting to set up a political party on a religious basis. They complained of unjustified interference with their right to freedom of association and also of discrimination against them.
The applicants, Rosen Marinov Yordanov and his brother Atanas Marinov Yordanov, are Bulgarian nationals. They are businessmen and belong to the Turkish-Muslim minority in Bulgaria.
In 2008 the applicants set up and registered an association for the integration of the Turkish-speaking population in Bulgaria.
