(ANSAmed) - BERLIN, 29 LUG - The administrative court of
North Rhine-Westphalia ruled to not send two asylum seekers back
to Italy because the asylum seekers would "seriously risk
undergoing inhumane and degrading treatment".
The ruling regards two asylum seekers, from Somalia and Mali,
who, according to the Dublin Regulation, should have been sent
back to their place of first entry, Italy, to process their
asylum application.
The justification of the ruling refers to the fact that "both
applicants would not have access to a reception facility and
related care in the event of a return to Italy".
"There is a serious risk that they will not be able to meet
their most basic needs for an extended period of time if they
are moved back to Italy," said the statement published by the
court on its website.
In January, the high court refused transfer back to Greece for
the same reason. (ANSAmed).
