UN: The Human Rights Committee dismissed the communication of a Myanmar national against Sweden, finding that her opposition to the military junta on social media, her family’s political background, and her claims of discrimination based on her ethnicity, religion and health condition did not substantiate a real risk of irreparable harm upon return, and that her removal would not violate Articles 6 and 7 of the ICCPR.

The applicant, a national of Myanmar, referred to as K.C. , entered Sweden on a student visa from Türkiye on 18 February 2021 and applied for asylum on 9 March 2021. She claimed she...

UN: The Human Rights Committee found inadmissible the complaint of an Afghan national facing removal from Sweden, concluding that his alleged claims of conversion to Christianity and homosexuality were not credibly substantiated, that his mental health condition was treatable in Afghanistan, and that he failed to prove Afghan authorities’ awareness of his profile.

The applicant, an Afghan national, requested international protection in Sweden on 27 August 2014 as an unaccompanied minor. He claimed fear of persecution by the Taliban due to his Hazara ethnicity and his Shia Muslim faith. He also cited...

EU: The CJEU clarified that the term ‘rejection’, in the wording of Article 18(1)(d) of the Dublin III Regulation, is an independent concept under the EU law, which cannot be interpreted as including non-extension or non-renewal of a residence document previously issued to a third-country national who made an application for international protection.

A Syrian national applied for asylum in Denmark on 1st July 2016 and was issued a temporary residence document pursuant to Paragraph 7(3) of the Law on Foreign Nationals, by decision of 29 August 2016. That residence document was initially valid for one...

29/07/2025

FR: The National Court of Asylum rejected the appeal of a Guinean woman of Diakhanké ethnicity, finding her account of forced marriage, female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C), and family reprisals not credible, and holding that the risk of re-excision in Guinea for women who have undergone reconstructive surgery was not established in light of reliable country information.

The applicant, a Guinean national of Diakhanké ethnicity and Muslim faith born in 2002, applied for international protection in France in April 2025. She claimed that she feared persecution if returned to Guinea on two grounds: membership of the social group of women fleeing forced marriage, and of...

16/07/2025

FR: The National Court of Asylum upheld OFPRA’s termination of refugee status for a Mauritanian national, finding that although the applicant continued to face risks of persecution as a member of the Black Mauritanian community, his refugee protection ceased under Article L.511-7 CESEDA due to repeated convictions for sexual assaults against minors and the continuing danger he posed to French society.

The applicant, a Mauritanian national born in 1960, arrived in France in 1991 and was granted refugee status by the French Office for the Protection of Refugees and Stateless Persons (OFPRA) on 8 October 1991 on grounds of persecution risks linked to his membership of the...

05/06/2025

FR: The Council of State upheld prefectural orders requiring a Congolese national and his daughter to leave French territory, finding that, in line with previous CJEU judgments on the right to be heard before the return decision is issued, their right to be heard had been respected during the asylum procedure, that no additional hearing was required prior to the issuance of the removal order and that the lower court had correctly excluded risks of ill-treatment under Article 3 of the ECHR.

B.D.C., a national from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and his daughter, E.C., entered France on 14 February 2020. Both filed applications for international protection, which...
