RIGHT TO AN EFFECTIVE REMEDY
The Article 13 of the ECHR enshrines a ” right to an effective remedy “
Anyone whose rights and freedoms recognized in this Convention have been violated, has the right to the granting of an effective remedy before a national body, even though the violation would have been committed by persons acting in the exercise of their official functions.
