Art. 66d88

e. De­fer­ring en­force­ment of man­dat­ory ex­pul­sion

 

1 The en­force­ment of a man­dat­ory ex­pul­sion or­der un­der Art­icle 66a may only be de­ferred if:89

a.
the per­son con­cerned is re­cog­nised by Switzer­land as a refugee and, if ex­pelled, his life or his free­dom would be en­dangered due to his race, re­li­gion, na­tion­al­ity, af­fil­i­ation to a spe­cif­ic so­cial group or his polit­ic­al views; the fore­go­ing does not ap­ply to a refugee who may not in­voke the ban on re­foule­ment un­der Art­icle 5 para­graph 2 of the Asylum Act of 26 June 199890;
b.
ex­pul­sion would vi­ol­ate oth­er man­dat­ory pro­vi­sions of in­ter­na­tion­al law.

2 In reach­ing its de­cision, the com­pet­ent can­ton­al au­thor­ity must as­sume that ex­pul­sion to a state deemed safe by the Fed­er­al Coun­cil in ac­cord­ance with Art­icle 6a para­graph 2 of the Asylum Act of 26 June 1998 does not vi­ol­ate Art­icle 25 para­graphs 2 and 3 of the Fed­er­al Con­sti­tu­tion.
