Reason Manifestly ill-founded

Facts of the case Man sent to mental institution. He complains about various interferences with his bodily and psychological integrity and of control of his correspondence.
Analysis The Commission does not find that the case raises any violation of the right to privacy. It does not say that, for instance, the interferences were provided for by law and necessary in a democratic society in light of the protection of the protection of health and morals, but simply disregards the complaints.
