el tribunal europeo de derechos humanos declara a suiza culpable In its rulingexternal link handed down on Tuesday, the Strasbourg-based Court found that Switzerland had violated Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights, concerning the right to respect for private and family life. The four people – three Eritreans and one Chinese of Tibetan origin – arrived in Switzerland between 2008 and 2012 and were granted refugee status.
They were admitted to the country on a provisional basis, as it had been established that they would be at risk of ill-treatment if returned to their country of origin. Unlike refugees with asylum status, provisionally admitted people are only entitled to family reunification if they are not reliant on social assistance.
In the case of the four refugees, the Swiss authorities refused their applications for family reunification on the grounds that this condition was not met.
