The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal regarding a claim for a war pension linked to deportation to the USSR. The applicant argued that general poor conditions during deportation caused her current disability, but the court found no specific causal link between the deportation and her medical conditions. The court ruled that the law requires a direct causal relationship between specific injuries or diseases caused by deportation and the resulting inability to work, which was not established in this case.
