VG Braunschweig 2. Kammer, Beschluss vom 25.02.2022, 2 B 27/22

Systemic flaws in the Croatian asylum procedure due to violent push-backs 1. There is considerable evidence that Croatian authorities through forced returns to Bosnia-Herzegovina specifically thwart the right to apply for asylum and thus violate the non-refoulement principle. 2. Croatian police officers regularly use physical and psychological violence when performing push-backs. 3. Due to Croatia's participation in chain deportations from other EU countries, it cannot be ruled out that Dublin returnees from Germany will also become victims of push-backs.

Article 15(c) of Directive 2011/95 must be interpreted as meaning that, in order to determine whether there is a ‘serious and individual threat’, within the meaning of that provision, a comprehensive appraisal of all the circumstances of the individual case, in particular those which characterise the situation of the applicant’s country of origin, is required.
