Abstract or summary

In 1998, the Turkish Constitutional Court dissolved the Refah Party as a “center of activities contrary to the principle of secularism” and banned six of its leaders from political party activities for five years. Two of the judges dissented, arguing, inter alia, the incompatibility of this measure with the 1950 European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms (ECHR). The party, and the politicians affected, applied to the European Court of Human Rights (the Court).

Translated abstract or summary: Në vitin 1998, Gjykata Kushtetuese turke shpërbëri Partinë Refah si një "qendër e aktiviteteve në kundërshtim me parimin e laicizmit" dhe ndaloi gjashtë prej udhëheqësve të saj nga aktivitetet e partise politike për pesë vjet. Dy nga gjyqtarët kundershtuan, duke argumentuar, inter alia, papajtueshmërinë e kësaj mase me Konventën 1950 Evropiane për Mbrojtjen e të Drejtave të Njeriut dhe Lirive Themelore të Njeriut (KEDNJ). Partia dhe politikanët e afektuar, aplikuan në Gjykatën Europiane të të Drejtave të Njeriut.
