Bayev and Others v. Russia (67667/09, 44092/12 and 56717/12) was a case brought to the European Court of Human Rights by three Russian activists—Nikolay Bayev, Aleksei Aleksandrovich Kiselev, and Nikolay Alekseyev—alleging that the Russian gay propaganda law infringed on their freedom of expression guaranteed by Article 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights. On 20 June 2017, the court ruled that the applicants' freedom of expression had been compromised.[1] The only dissent was from Dmitry Dedov, the judge elected with respect to Russia.
