Syrian restrains compatriots from sailing to
ItalySyrian Ali Sandeed was not so long ago at the point to make the crossing in a rickety boat from Libya to the Italian island of Lampedusa.
VIEWS OF CHARGE
Yet wanted Sandeed take for granted the impending doom. He fled nearly three years ago with his family from the Palestinian Yarmouk camp in Damascus to Lebanon. Because although they were safe from the war in their country, but not for the hunger, cold and poverty.
"The whole day I was walking around with the thought that I never work in Lebanon and will get a chance for a better life," says Sandeed. "I did not sleep on it. The situation is hopeless. Why should not I try to reach Italy and ask for asylum in France? Maybe I or opportunities for employment and a better life.
Judges criticize Bill skimp
"ConjuresThe Council for the Judiciary is critical of a bill that anti-terrorist measures in life.
The proposal is" unclear "and some intentions are "very undesirable", as can be read in theadvice that steer the courts in the Netherlands today to Minister Ard van der Steur of Security and Justice (VVD).
OVER FREEDOM RESTRICTION
The measures discussed in the bill shall be construed as limiting freedom. Contact, travel, and exclusion orders and an obligation to report or the revocation of licenses, subsidies, exemptions and approvals are possible. It is according to the judges unclear whether it also licenses and taxi licenses. In that case, a more restrictive measure than restraint can result, according to the Council.
The Council for the Judiciary is also concerned that the bill simply gives the judiciary the power to impose restrictions. "It seems intended especially to take drastic measures in place without first hearing the person concerned," wrote the judges. "That is highly undesirable." Only in the event of a ban should be allowed such a thing, in the Council. Finally, the Council believes that someone "on the basis of his behavior" associated with terrorism can be brought to a vague description. "It provides little guidance to the courts."
SYMPTOM AND COMBAT CORRUPTION PRIVACY
Late last month voiced the College of Human Rights already criticized the bill. Drawn up within the framework of the Action Programme Integrated Approach Jihadism in an attempt to counter the government jihadism. According to the college's plans are mainly symptoms and affect them in privacy. Therefore, the Board called on the government to reconsider the plan.
The government has drawn up proposals for administrative measures in order to circumvent the strong legal protection in criminal law. The College of Human Rights ruled on that despite the need to protect society the proposed plans have to be in line with human rights. The Council for the Judiciary wonders why now much administrative measures should be taken. That need, according to the judges not clear in the current bill.
The bill is intended to take preventive measures to protect national security and to prevent people from participating or providing support to terrorist organizations. However, the Council considers that these preventive measures in some cases a "punitive character" can get.
