SECOND SECTION

Application no. 21783/22 Ozgur CAKMAK against Denmark lodged on 26 April 2022 communicated on 31 May 2022

SUBJECT MATTER OF THE CASE

The applicant is a Turkish national, born in Denmark. By a judgment which became final on 28 October 2021 the applicant was convicted, notably of attempted murder committed on 11 April 2013 . He was sentenced to 6 years and 3 months’ imprisonment. Moreover, he was expelled from Denmark with a life-long ban on returning.

The applicant 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 born in Denmark, and was sentenced to 6 years and 3 months’ imprisonment for crimes committed on 11 April 2013, would the order to expel him from the country with a permanent re-entry ban be in breach of Article 8 of the Convention (see, for example, Abdi v. Denmark , no. 41643/19, 14 September 2021)?
