Asylum Act provision is incompatible
Regina (Nasseri) v. Secretary of State for the Home Department
Queen’s Bench Division
“An absolute bar preventing the Secretary of State for the Home Department from considering whether certain countries would return asylum-seekers in contravention of their human rights was incompatible with the right to not be subjected to torture or inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.”
