Doesn’t matter. Human rights also apply to rapists and drug traffickers.
Very uncomfortable point to make, but also very true
What human rights are being violated here? Immigrating to Germany or any country is not a right, it’s a privilege. These individuals went to Germany illegally, then committed serious crimes, were found guilty, and now they’re getting deported back to their country because they longer qualify for asylum. This is like the most basic and most common sense immigration policy to have, calling it a human rights violation is asinine.
You are being incredibly shady. What do you think the Taliban will do to those people?
If someone is in Germany and is convicted of a crime then they have to go to prison in Germany.
Probably nothing. This is the Taliban we’re talking about. They don’t care about things crimes committed against non believers. All 20 of the deported are Afghani men, as long as they show loyalty to the Taliban, they’ll probably be left alone.
My understanding is that if they’re convicted of a crime in Germany, they serve their sentence first and then get deported right after.
Article 14
Here’s what article 14 says:
The principle behind this article only applies to genuine cases of political prosecution, where the person seeking refuge is doing so in good faith. Countries can and often do reject asylum cases where the person seeking asylum either lies on their application or commits serious crimes inside the country they’re seeking refuge in. I don’t see these individuals being deported as a violation of this article.
