Yesterday, the Swiss television informed that Switzerland is already sending back families to Italy due to Dublin-III-convention :http://www.srf.ch/news/schweiz/erste-rueckfuehrung-nach-italien-seit-dem-urteil-aus-strassburg (resume in Italian :http://dirittiefrontiere.blogspot.it/2014/11/riprendono-le-riammissioni-dublino.html). This only three weeks after the decision of European Court on Human Rights against Switzerland in the case Tarakhel:www.hudoc.echr.coe.int/ (Fall/Cas/Caso Nr. 29217/12 vom/du/del 4.11.14). As the report says, Swiss authorities got a list of reception centers (SPRAR) where Italy garantees good conditions for families with children (see a part of it in minute 4.15 : Acireale, Acquaformosa, Acquaformosa OPCM 3933, Acquapendente, Adelfia, Africo, Agnone, Agrigento, Alessandria Provincia, Alice Bel Colle, Ass. ADL a Zvidovici AP 2012 Az. 4). Furtheron, the report says also that Switzerland already sent back one family to Italy yesterday. Finally, ss I got informed two days ago, already on November 3d, Switzerland had decided to keep the family Tarakhel in Urgency (means only giving them food and a bad place to sleep) : http://relevancy.bger.ch/php/aza/http/index.php?lang=de&zoom&type=show_document&highlight_docid=aza%3A%2F%2F03-11-2014-8C_706-2013.
In practice it means that furtheron, in Italy there will be two classes of refugees because of the decision of ECHR: the one guaranteed (1. Class) and the rest who will still stay in bad condition or thrown into the streets. I am willing to do everything to stop this and already asked Swiss parliamentarians and journalists to get this list. There are two things Italian activists can do as soon as we get the list (or who have access to informations on the ones already known). The easier way is to PROVE BY CASE (not only tell by being told) that condition in these SPRAR are NOW (not last month) not ok for families (find below the exact text of the decision of ECHR in english and french). The other way is to PROVE BY CASE (not only bell by being told) that 2.Class-refugees are thrown out of these SPRAR in order to make place for 1.Class-refugees NOW (not two days ago), ideally with documents or clear orders of the bosses of the NGOs ruling the SPRAR.
I thank you for any advices and will send the list as soon as possible if you don’t write back to this email that you don’t want to be informed about this any longer.
Thank you for your attention
