Country of applicant:
Senegal
Keywords:
Effective remedy (right to), Inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, Right to remain pending a decision (Suspensive effect), Subsequent application, Return
The non-suspensive effect of a decision not to further examine a subsequent application under Article 32 of the 2005 Asylum Procedures Directive is not in violation of Articles 19(2) and 47 of the Charter since the decision’s enforcement will not lead to the applicant being removed and is therefore unlikely to expose the applicant to a risk of inhumane treatment.
