The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) has also canceled scheduled hearings until the end of April, as part of a range of emergency measures announced on Monday amid the ongoing coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak.
“The premises of the European Court of Human Rights are no longer accessible to the public and the hearings scheduled for March and April are canceled, pending further decisions," the statement read.
The time limits in proceedings that have currently been filed are also suspended for one month, starting from March 16, 2020.
