Applicant v. State Secretary for Security and Justice 12 November 2018 \| Judicial Body: Netherlands, The: The Hague District Court \| Document type: Case Law \| Topic(s): Internal flight alternative (IFA) / Internal relocation alternative (IRA) / Internal protection alternative (IPA) - Internally displaced persons (IDPs) - Safe country of origin \| Countries: Netherlands - Ukraine
K, B v Staatssecretaris van Veiligheid en Justitie (C-380/17) (request for preliminary ruling) 1. The Court of Justice has jurisdiction, on the basis of Article 267 TFEU, to interpret Article 12(1) of Council Directive 2003/86/EC of 22 September 2003 on the right to family reunification in a situation such as that at issue in the main proceedings, where a national court is called upon to rule on a beneficiary of subsidiary protection’s right to family reunification, if that provision was made directly and unconditionally applicable to such a situation under national law. 2. Article 12(1) of Directive 2003/86 does not preclude national legislation which permits an application for family reunification lodged on behalf of a member of a refugee’s family, on the basis of the more favourable provisions for refugees of Chapter V of that directive, to be rejected on the ground that that application was lodged more than three months after the sponsor was granted refugee status, whilst affording the possibility of lodging a fresh application under a different set of rules provided that that legislation: – lays down that such a ground of refusal cannot apply to situations in which particular circumstances render the late submission of the initial application objectively excusable; – lays down that the persons concerned are to be fully informed of the consequences of the decision rejecting their initial application and of the measures which they can take to assert their rights to family reunification effectively; and – ensures that sponsors recognised as refugees continue to benefit from the more favourable conditions for the exercise of the right to family reunification applicable to refugees, specified in Articles 10 and 11 or in Article 12(2) of the directive. 7 November 2018 \| Judicial Body: European Union: Court of Justice of the European Union \| Document type: Case Law \| Topic(s): Family reunification \| Countries: Netherlands
Lawyer of acquitted Christian woman says EU, UN made him leave Pakistan 5 November 2018 \| Publisher: Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty \| Document type: Country News
Applicant v. State Secretary for Security and Justice, 201805022/1/V2 an investigation into the origin of a foreign national is the responsibility of the state secretary and is not limited to a language analysis. If a language analysis does not provide a definitive answer about the origin of the applicant, but the State Secretary maintains his position that an alleged origin is not credible, he will have to motivate this. The State Secretary has, and wrongly, not been able to assess the credibility of the applicant's statement that she has been living indoors for 15 years. He also wrongly failed to respond to the report by Buro Kleurkracht that supports her story. The State Secretary has therefore not soundly substantiated that the origin of the applicant is not credible. 4 October 2018 \| Judicial Body: Netherlands, The: Council of State (Raad van State) \| Document type: Case Law \| Topic(s): Credibility assessment - Evidence (including age and language assessments / medico-legal reports) \| Countries: Iraq - Netherlands
