The case examines whether the rejection of the complainant’s application for asylum is lawful and if he may be deported. He can only be deported if he does not face inhuman or degrading treatment in his country of origin. In addition, his social networks and the possibility of a basis for subsistence are relevant.
Somalia is classified as a country which in general is safe. An impermissible expulsion depends on the applicant’s personal circumstances, persecution and risk of harm in his country of origin.
