In the case of Khasanov and Rakhmanov v. Russia the Court held that there would be no violation of the prohibition of torture and of inhuman or degrading treatment if the applicants were extradited to Kyrgyzstan.

The case concerned the applicants' allegation that they risked ill-treatment if extradited to Kyrgyzstan because they belonged to the Uzbek ethnic minority, who have been persecuted by the authorities since interethnic clashes in 2010.
