the Turkish Migration Office before the Administrative Court &#x201C;His case is similar to that of the <a

have already won: Turkey had to stop its deportation to Iran,&#x201D; he describes. At the same time, he had never experienced such a case as that of al Mustafa. There were formal mistakes made, there was a lack of evidence and the legal basis to legitimize the actions of the Turkish authorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ugb-heading ugb-heading ugb-b12b2d8 ugb-main-block\"><style>.ugb-b12b2d8 .ugb-heading__title{text-align:center}.ugb-b12b2d8 .ugb-inner-block{text-align:center}@media screen and (min-width:768px){.ugb-b12b2d8.ugb-heading{margin-bottom:0px !important}}<\/style><div class=\"ugb-inner-block\"><div class=\"ugb-block-content\"><h2 class=\"ugb-heading__title\">Domestic trial for winning time<\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The lawyer describes al Mustafa&#x2019;s case as difficult.

Therefore, Ba&#x15F;timar has now brought a second level into play: the UN Working Group against Arbitrary Detention. &#x201C;The trial before the Turkish court only helps us to gain time. We know that there will be no solution at the national level: there are no independent institutions in the country,&#x201D; he describes the tactic.

Additionally, al Mustafa had no opportunity to defend himself against the accusations before and after his deportation. &#x201C;What I find most problematic is that the police at the border said they were choosing a crime for him and it didn&#x2019;t matter,&#x201D; he notes. Subsequently, he was accused of a voluntary return to Syria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is exactly where Ba&#x15F;timar sees further violations of rights on the part of Turkey &#x2013; in two aspects. On the one hand, Syrians would have the right to ask for protection again even after voluntarily returning to their country of origin. &#x201C;But Turkey said he has no right to stay. He will be arrested and deported,&#x201D; the lawyer said. It does not matter whether the border crossing was legal or illegal. In addition, Syrians from Turkey are allowed to travel to Syria on holidays and on special occasions and from there could return to Turkey without legal restrictions. &#x201C;This is huge discrimination for Anas,&#x201D; he notes.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ugb-heading ugb-heading ugb-2745679 ugb-main-block\"><style>.ugb-2745679 .ugb-heading__title{text-align:center}.ugb-2745679 .ugb-inner-block{text-align:center}@media screen and (min-width:768px){.ugb-2745679.ugb-heading{margin-bottom:0px !important}}<\/style><div class=\"ugb-inner-block\"><div class=\"ugb-block-content\"><h2 class=\"ugb-heading__title\">Hope for a visa in Italy<\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Nevertheless, Ba&#x15F;timar advises his client to be cautious until the case is finally resolved. He reckons on a good chance that the UN working group will decide in his favor. The date for this will be announced soon. With the attention of the international community, illegal deportation should then be off the table. This is because the UN body cannot enforce its decisions, even if its decisions should in theory be more important than national court decisions. That Turkey will follow international jurisprudence in this case &#x2013; unlike the human rights activist Osman Kavala or the Kurdish politician Selahattin Demirta&#x15F; &#x2013; he sees in al Mustafa&#x2019;s lower level of awareness: &#x201C;With ordinary people, there is a different approach.&#x201D;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ba&#x15F;timar is working at the same time to obtain an Italian visa for al Mustafa. There he could get a job at a human rights organization that had already supported him in his activities in Turkey. Then the court proceedings in Turkey would no longer be of importance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ugb-notification ugb-notification ugb-5563b16 ugb-notification--v2 ugb-notification--design-large-icon ugb-notification--type-info ugb-main-block ugb--has-custom-content-width ugb--has-custom-content-width-tablet ugb--has-custom-content-width-mobile\"><style>.ugb-5563b16.ugb-notification > .ugb-inner-block{max-width:50% !important}@media screen and (max-width:1025px){.ugb-5563b16.ugb-notification > .ugb-inner-block{max-width:90% !important}}@media screen and (max-width:768px){.ugb-5563b16.ugb-notification > .ugb-inner-block{max-width:95% !important}}<\/style><div class=\"ugb-inner-block\"><div class=\"ugb-block-content\"><div class=\"ugb-notification__item ugb-notification--new-icon ugb--shadow-3\"><div class=\"ugb-notification__icon\"><div class=\"ugb-icon-inner-svg\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" data-prefix=\"far\" data-icon=\"id-badge\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-id-badge fa-w-12\" role=\"img\" viewbox=\"0 0 384 512\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M336 0H48C21.5 0 0 21.5 0 48v416c0 26.5 21.5 48 48 48h288c26.5 0 48-21.5 48-48V48c0-26.5-21.5-48-48-48zm0 464H48V48h288v416zM144 112h96c8.8 0 16-7.2 16-16s-7.2-16-16-16h-96c-8.8 0-16 7.2-16 16s7.2 16 16 16zm48 176c35.3 0 64-28.7 64-64s-28.7-64-64-64-64 28.7-64 64 28.7 64 64 64zm-89.6 128h179.2c12.4 0 22.4-8.6 22.4-19.2v-19.2c0-31.8-30.1-57.6-67.2-57.6-10.8 0-18.7 8-44.8 8-26.9 0-33.4-8-44.8-8-37.1 0-67.2 25.8-67.2 57.6v19.2c0 10.6 10 19.2 22.4 19.2z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/div><\/div><h5 class=\"ugb-notification__title\"> Ba&#x15F;timar accepts more cases<\/h5><p class=\"ugb-notification__description\">Speaking to Report on the ground, Ba&#x15F;timar pointed out that he accepts further cases of human rights violations.
