al minority, property, birth or other status."
131. The Court observes that no evidence has been submitted to it that suggests that the applicants were treated differently from persons in an analogous situation without objective and reasonable justification, or that they have ever raised this complaint before the domestic authorities. It thus finds that this complaint has not been substantiated.
132. It follows that this part of the applications are manifestly ill-founded and should be rejected in accordance with Article 35 §§ 3 and 4 of the Convention.
IX. Application of Article 41 of the Convention
133. Article 41 of the Convention provides:
"If the Court finds that there has been a violation of the Convention or the Protocols thereto, and if the internal law of the High Contracting Party concerned allows only partial reparation to be made, the Court shall, if necessary, afford just satisfaction to the injured party."
A. Pecuniary damage
134. The applicants claimed damages in respect of loss of earnings by their relatives after their arrests and subsequent disappearances. They submitted that they had been financially dependent on their disappeared relatives and that they would have benefited from their financial support in the following amounts. The first applicant as the father of Aslambek and Aslan Ismailov claimed 483,551 Russian roubles (RUB) under this heading (13,816 euros (EUR)). The applicants of Khizir Ismailov's family claimed a total of RUB 381,934 (EUR 10,913): the second applicant claimed EUR 111, the third applicant claimed EUR 1,995 and the fourth applicant claimed EUR 8,807. The fifth applicant as the son of Yusi Daydayev claimed RUB 58,572 under this heading (EUR 1,673). The applicants of Yaragi Daydayev's family claimed a total of RUB 350,594 under this heading (EUR 10,016): the eighth applicant claimed EUR 3,639, the twelfth applicant claimed EUR 39, the thirteenth applicant claimed EUR 264, the fourteenth applicant claimed EUR 404, the fifteenth applicant claimed EUR 583, the sixteenth applicant claimed EUR 722; the seventeenth applicant claimed EUR 854; the eighteenth applicant claimed EUR 910, the nineteenth applicant claimed EUR 853, the twentieth applicant claimed EUR 853 and the twenty-first applicant claimed EUR 895.
135. The applicants submitted that their relatives had been unemployed at the time of their arrest and that in such cases the calculation should be made on the basis of the subsistence level established by national law. They calculated their earnings for the period, taking into account an average inflation rate of 13.67%. Their calculations were also based on the actuarial tables for use in personal injury and fatal accident cases published by the United Kingdom Government Actuary's Department in 2007 ("Ogden tables").
136. The Government regarded these claims as unsubstantiated. They also pointed to the existence of domestic statutory machinery for the provision of a pension for the loss of the family breadwinner.
137. The Court reiterates that there must be a clear causal connection between the damage claimed by the applicants and the violation of the Convention, and that this may, in an appropriate case, include compensation in respect of loss of earnings. Having regard to its above conclusions, it finds that there is a direct causal link between the violation of Article 2 in respect of the applicants' relatives and the loss by the applicants of the financial support which they could have provided. Having regard to the applicants' submissions and the fact that Aslambek Ismailov, Aslan Ismailov, Yaragi Ismailov, Khizir Ismailov and Yusi Daydayev were not employed at the time of their abduction, the Court awards EUR 13,000 to the first applicant; EUR 10,000 to the second, third and fourth applicants jointly; EUR 1,500 t
