In
sum
,
the
Court
has
yet
to
determine
the
question
of
principle
whether
(
and
if
so
,
under
what
conditions
)
,
in
the
light
of
Article
6
of
the
Convention
,
it
is
permissible
to
use
evidence
obtained
in
breach
of
any
other
Convention
right
.
This
question
goes
to
the
heart
of
the
concept
of
fairness
of
criminal
trials
.
It
is
also
of
general
importance
for
the
effective
protection
of
human
rights
and
fundamental
freedoms
guaranteed
by
the
Convention
.
For
this
purpose
,
a
revisiting
of
the
Court
’s
existing
jurisprudence
on
the
admissibility
of
illegally
obtained
evidence
would
be
welcome
.
We
would
venture
to
suggest
that
in
the
near
future
the
Grand
Chamber
might
address
the
matter
in
an
appropriate
way
.
