Communication text used for prediction
The application concerns the refusal of the applicant, who is a conscientious objector and an activist, to attend reservist service when called to attend training for military mobilisation of the Turkish Army in the “Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus” (the “TRNC”) in 2009.
On 25 February 2014 he was convicted by the Security Forces Court for failing to serve in the reservist service and sentenced to a fine and ten days’ imprisonment in default of payment.
His appeal against this decision was dismissed by the Security Forces Appeal Court on 9 October 2014.
In the meantime the applicant served his prison sentence between 25 February 2014 and 6 March 2014.
The applicant relies on Articles 5 §§ 1, 4 and 5, 6, 9, 13 and 14 of the Convention.
