(Case C-388/24, Oguta)
(C/2024/5213)
Language of the case: Italian
Applicant: GK
Defendants: Ministero dell’Interno, Commissione Territoriale per la Protezione Internazionale – Sezione di Perugia
1.Primarily, must EU law, Articles 36, 37 and 46 of Directive 2013/32/EU in particular, be interpreted as precluding a Member State from designating a country as a safe country of origin subject to the exclusion of categories of persons at risk, in respect of whom the presumption of safety does not apply, and must, therefore, in such a case, the country as a whole not be regarded as a safe country of origin for the purposes of the directive?
2.In the alternative, if that method of designation is not held to be prohibited absolutely by EU law, does EU law preclude a national rule that designates a safe country of origin with personal exclusions that, by number and type, are difficult to ascertain, given the tight time-frame of the accelerated procedure (in particular ‘prisoners; persons with physical or mental disabilities; albinos; HIV-positive persons; LGBT community; victims of discrimination on the basis of gender, including victims and potential victims of FGM; victims of trafficking; internally displaced persons (IDPs); journalists; members of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria (IMN); members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB)’), and must, therefore, in such a case, the country as a whole not be regarded as a safe country of origin for the purposes of the directive?
