My Nord Ost friends told me yesterday that, in case of a dissatisfactory outcome of their Strasbourg appeal, they won't stop there and will take the case further. They said that that's the decision they have made for themselves.
The lawyers are saying that no other case has taken this long for the Strasbourg Court to come to a decision on. My guess is that they are trying to come up with a safe formula that won't offend either the victims or Russian government. I think they are hesitant to rule that what the government has done is wrong and inhumane.
