The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by a pensioner against the Social Insurance Institution regarding the calculation of his pension. The appellant argued that limiting the pension base to 250% of the average wage, despite his high earnings, violated the principle of equality and property rights under international treaties. The court held that the statutory limitation is a lawful measure in the public interest and does not constitute discrimination based on gender, race, or other protected grounds.
