Asylum seekers lying will be penalised by Germany

For Germany's Minister of Internal Affairs, Horst Seehofer, if asylum seekers refused to hide their identity, they would lose <x0...duldung“, the provisional permit tolerated. The plans are still being prepared.

The news agency, AFP and the newspaper “Die Welt” cite a draft of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Berlin: “Who prevents his own expulsion, for example, giving the authorities wrong data on identity or citizenship or does not co-operate in obtaining the passport, will not in the future receive “duldung” (the provisional allowed freedom of staying. )

This stranger will be equipped with only one permit marking, that he is obliged to leave Germany, reports the newspaper “Die Welt”.

The aim of this legal toughness is to separate refused asylum seekers who obstruct their own expulsion from those who for known reasons cannot be expelled because they have no passport, have strong humanitarian reasons to speak against deportation or in the person's residential region, because it is a crisis region.
