According to VKP, "upon consideration of the application, written observation on merits of the case and just satisfaction, filed by Vasil Kisil and Partners’ lawyers, the Court found that confiscation of cash seized by customs officers when [Sadocha] crossed the customs border was disproportionate and led to the violation of [his] right to the peaceful enjoyment of his possessions. The Court awarded [Sadocha] EUR 29,500 in respect of pecuniary damage."
