The Voivodeship Administrative Court in Warsaw has overturned the decision to transfer Andrei Mamoyka and Vera Mamoyka to Germany under the Dublin procedure. The court issued its ruling on April 16. The appeal was handled by Hanna Matsiyeuskaya, the Partyzanka initiative reported.
Andrei and Vera held German visas, but they wanted to apply for international protection in Poland. The court’s decision means that Poland will now consider their asylum cases.
The court confirmed that having a visa from another country cannot be the sole basis for transfer and stated that individual circumstances, health conditions, and humanitarian factors must also be taken into account.
“Another principled victory, not only for this family but for everyone whose fate authorities try to decide ‘automatically,’ without considering the real circumstances,” Partyzanka said.
