Judgment of the Court (Fourth Chamber) of 19 May 2022 (request for a preliminary ruling from the Spetsializiran nakazatelen sad — Bulgaria) — Criminal proceedings against IR
(Case C-569/20) (1)

(Reference for a preliminary ruling - Judicial cooperation in criminal matters - Directive (EU) 2016/343 - Article 8 - Right to be present at the trial - Information regarding the holding of the trial - Inability to locate the accused person notwithstanding the reasonable efforts of the competent authorities - Possibility of a trial and a conviction in absentia - Article 9 - Right to a new trial, or to another legal remedy, which allows a fresh determination of the merits of the case)

Interested party: Spetsializirana prokuratura

Operative part of the judgment

Articles 8 and 9 of Directive (EU) 2016/343 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 March 2016 on the strengthening of certain aspects of the presumption of innocence and of the right to be present at the trial in criminal proceedings must be interpreted as meaning that an accused person whom the competent national authorities, despite their reasonable efforts, do not succeed in locating and to whom they accordingly have not managed to give the information regarding his or her trial may be tried and, as the case may be, convicted in absentia, but must in that case, in principle, be able, after notification of the conviction, to rely directly on the right, conferred by that directive, to secure the reopening of the proceedings or access to an equivalent legal remedy resulting in a fresh examination, in his or her presence, of the merits of the case. That person may, however, be denied that right if it is apparent from precise and objective indicia that he or she received sufficient information to know that he or she was going to be brought to trial and, by deliberate acts and with the intention of evading justice, prevented the authorities from informing him or her officially of that trial.

Action brought on 19 May 2022 — Kesaev v Council
(Case T-290/22)
(2022/C 303/64)
Language of the case: Dutch

Parties


Applicant: Igor Albertovich Kesaev (Usovo, Russia) (represented by: R. Moeyersons and A. De Jonge, lawyers)

Defendant: Council of the European Union

Form of order sought







—


annul Council Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/581 of 8 April 2022 implementing Regulation (EU) No 269/2014 concerning restrictive measures in respect of actions undermining or threatening the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine to the extent that it concerns the applicant;










—


order the Council to reimburse the applicant’s costs.





Pleas in law and main arguments

In support of the action, the applicant relies on four pleas in law.






1.


First plea in law, alleging that the applicant’s inclusion in the sanctions list is based on factually incorrect grounds.






—


The actions of the applicant within [confidential] (1) do not call for the applicant’s inclusion in the sanctions list. Not one of the reasons set out in Article 2 of Decision 2014/145/CFSP, as amended by Council Decision (CFSP) 2022/329 of 25 February 2022, is applicable to the applicant.










—


The applicant is not a shareholder of [confidential]. The applicant was only indirectly, via the company GlobalVoyenTreyding Ltd, a passive shareholder of [confidential]. The applicant transferred those shares to the management by agreements of 11 January 2022, and therefore prior to the military operation of the Russian armed forces in Ukraine.










—


The applicant has no links with ‘the security forces’ of the Russian Federation via [confidential]. The applicant has no active or executive role within that foundation, which is a charity, nor is he aware of whether or not the trustees of that foundation are former officials of the Russian security services, which the Council does not demonstrate.














2.


Second plea in law, alleging that the applicant was never heard, which is a violation of the right to a fair trial. Had the applicant been properly informed and given the opportunity to submit observations in due time, the procedure would have had a different outcome.










3.


Third plea in law, alleging that the applicant’s inclusion in the sanctions list is, having regard to the first plea, contrary to Articles 6, 8, 16 and 17 of the Charter, in combination with Article 52 thereof.










4.


Fourth plea in law, alleging breach of the principle of legal certainty. The criteria for placing persons on the sanctions list are vague and unclear and therefore lead to arbitrary decisions.

—


order the Council to bear the costs of the proceedings.





Pleas in law and main arguments

In support of the action, the applicant relies on four pleas in law.






1.


First plea in law, alleging breach of the right to effective judicial protection and of Article 47 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, as well as a breach of the obligation to state reasons and of Article 296 TFEU.










2.


Second plea in law, alleging manifest error of assessment and breach of the listing criteria set forth in Article 1 (1) and 2(1) of Council Decision 2014/145/CFSP of 17 March 2014 concerning restrictive measures in respect of actions undermining or threatening the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine, and of Article 3 (1) of the Council Regulation (EU) No 269/2014 of 17 March 2014 concerning restrictive measures in respect of actions undermining or threatening the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine.










3.


Third plea in law, alleging breach of the principle of proportionality and breach of the applicant’s fundamental rights to property and freedom to conduct business (Article 16 and 17 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union).
