Switzerland’s Federal Administrative Court has ruled that an ongoing criminal investigation in Turkey related to President Erdogan’s insult laws does not automatically qualify an individual for asylum. The case involved a Kurdish man from Şırnak, who faced potential charges of terrorism propaganda after criticizing Erdogan online. The court noted increasing misuse of asylum claims by Turkish nationals, stating that mere investigation does not equate to a well-founded fear of persecution. Additionally, the court deemed two Turkish provinces now safe for potential deportations, altering prior assessments of their security situations.
