FOURTH SECTION
Application no. 14983/25
Abdulsattar Abdulbaset ALLABED
against Denmark
lodged on 9 May 2025
communicated on 16 June 2025
SUBJECT MATTER OF THE CASE
The applicant is a Syrian national who was born in 1973 and lives in Aarhus. He entered Denmark in 2012 at the age of 39. He and his Syrian wife have seven children, five of them adults. By a final Supreme Court judgment of 29 January 2025, the applicant was convicted of, inter alia, money laundering. He was sentenced to 2 years and 6 months’ imprisonment, and his expulsion from Denmark was ordered with a 6-year re-entry ban. He complained that the order expelling him from Denmark was in violation of Article 8 of the Convention.
QUESTION TO THE PARTIES
Having regard, in particular, to the fact that the applicant was sentenced to 2 years and 6 months’ imprisonment, and that the re-entry ban was reduced by virtue of section 32(5) of the Aliens Act, would the order to expel him from the country with a 6-year re-entry ban be in breach of Article 8 of the Convention (see, notably, Sharafane v. Denmark, no. 5199/23, 12 November 2024, and Al-Habeeb v. Denmark, no. 14171/23, 12 November 2024)?
