The
application
of
the
Disclosure
Act
breached
the
applicant
’s
right
to
privacy
on
account
of
the
long
period
of
time
that
has
passed
since
the
termination
of
the
applicant
’s
KGB
service
and
the
dissolution
of
the
Estonian
branch
of
the
KGB
.
While
it
is
true
that
the
Disclosure
Act
was
passed
less
than
four
years
after
Estonia
regained
its
independence
and
less
than
six
months
after
the
withdrawal
from
its
territory
of
the
last
remaining
troops
of
the
former
Soviet
Union
,
the
fact
is
that
13
years
elapsed
between
1991
,
the
last
year
of
the
applicant
’s
employment
at
the
KGB
,
and
2014
,
the
year
of
publication
of
the
announcement
on
the
Internet
and
on
paper
.
The
Court
was
not
provided
with
a
plausible
motive
why
the
Estonian
security
service
needed
so
much
time
to
gather
the
information
on
the
applicant[34
