| Facts of the case | The applicant complained under Articles 6 and 8 of the Convention about the reasoning of the domestic courts – in particular, about their reliance on the timing of her complaint and their failure to take into account the conclusions of above-mentioned medical experts. |
| Analysis | The Court thus considers that the judicial authorities failed to explore the means available to them to establish all the circumstances surrounding the instant case and did not sufficiently assess the credibility of the different versions of events. |
